Given the algebraic equation:
x + 2 = 10
Solve for x.
Solution:
In order to solve for x, we simply need to transpose 2 on the other side of the equation, hence it must be taken to note that in transposing any number or term, the sign of that number or term changes.
x + 2 = 10
x = 10 - 2
x = 8
Final answer:
x = 8
