Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x - 2x = 8 + 2

-5x = 10

x = -2

Answer:

[tex]x=-2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To cancel out "- 2", we add 2 into both sides.

[tex]-3x(-2+2)=2x+(8+2)[/tex]

[tex]-3x=2x+10[/tex]

Now, we need to get rid of 2x so we can have one x.

Let's subtract 2x from both sides.

[tex](-3x-2x)=(2x-2x)+10[/tex]

[tex]-5x=10[/tex]

To get x by itself, we will divide both sides by -5.

[tex]\frac{-5x}{-5} =\frac{10}{-5}[/tex]

[tex]x=-2[/tex]

The value of x in the given equation is -2. I do not see a -2 in the answer choices.
