<em><u>Step-by-step explanation:</u></em>

If we want to prove that x is equal to seven, we should first solve the equation for x so:

2x + 8 = 5x - 13

We should first add 13 on both sides and subtract 2x from both sides:

2x + 8 + 13 - 2x = 5x - 13 + 13 - 2x

21 = 3x

We can then divide both sides by 3 to get:

x = 7
