Answer:
1 Add 88 to both sides.
2x=10+8
2x=10+8
2 Simplify 10+810+8 to 1818.
2x=18
2x=18
3 Divide both sides by 22.
x=\frac{18}{2}
x=
2
18
4 Simplify \frac{18}{2}
2
18
to 99.
x=9
x=9
Explanation:
2x−8=10
1 Let x=9x=9.
2\times 9-8=10
2×9−8=10
2 Simplify 2\times 92×9 to 1818.
18-8=10
18−8=10
3 Simplify 18-818−8 to 1010.
10=10
10=10
