Answer:

x = 3

Explanation:

x+2=8-x what is the answer to this?

x + 2 = 8 - x

  • move the x to the left and the 2 on the right and change the sign

x + x = 8 - 2

  • solve on both sides

2x = 6

  • divide the two parts by 2

x = 3

----------------------------

check

3 + 2 = 8 - 3

5 = 5

  • the answer is good
