Answer 2

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+2−x+2=x+8  

Add the numbers

3 + 2 − + 2 = + 8 3 + 4 − = + 8 2

Combine like terms

3 + 4 − = + 8 2 + 4 = + 8 3

Subtract   4  from both sides of the equation  

Simplify

Subtract the numbers  

2x+4−4=x+8−4

2 = + 8 − 4  

Subtract the numbers

2 = + 4 5

Subtract  x from both sides of the equation

2 = + 4 2 − = + 4 − 6

Simplify

Combine like terms

Multiply by 1

Combine like terms

= 4
