Answer: x > 5

Step-by-step explanation: To solve for x in this inequality, your goal is the same as it would be if you were solving an equation, to get x by itself on one side.

Since 8 is being subtracted from x, add

8 to both sides of the inequality.

On the left the -8 +8 cancels out

and on the right, -3 + 8 is 5.

So we have x > 5.
