Answer:


x=89

Explanation:

We can plug into the formula for the mean to get
(87+73+84+82+x)/5=83.

We can combine like terms on the left side to get
(326+x)/5=83.

We can multiply by
5 on both sides to get
326+x=415.

We can finally subtract
326 from both sides to get
x=89.

So, the answer is
\boxed{x=89} and we're done!
