Answer:

x=10

Explanation:

3x−8=22

Step 1: Add 8 to both sides.

3x−8+8=22+8

3x=30

Step 2: Divide both sides by 3.


(3x)/(3) =
(30)/(3)

x=10

Answer:

x=10

Verification:Just substitute the x for 10


3(10)-8=22

Multiply 3 (10)


30-8=22

Substract 30-8


22=22 The solution is correct.

The correct answer is x=10

I hope this help :)
