Answer:

X=(-3)

Explanation:

1.Subtract 8 from both sides of the equation.-(x+0)=5-8-the 0 is there because the 8 on the left side is canceled out.

2.5-8 is all you have to look at.-when you look at this you know that it will be negative because 8 is on the right of the minus sign and it is greater than 5.

3.Use a calculator or you fingers to find answer.-(4,3,2,1,0,-1,-2,-3)

HOPE THIS HELPS!!!
