Question

What do I do now cause I’m stuck in the middle of the equation and not sure what else I may need to do besides make the x alone but I’m not sure how.

2x + 8 = 10

Answer 1

2x + 8 = 10
2x = 10 - 8
2x = 2
x = 2/2
x = 1

Answer 2

x = 1

Explanation:

2x + 8 = 10 ( isolate the x- term by subtracting 8 from both sides )

2x = 2 ( isolate x by dividing both sides by 2 )

x = 1
