1 answer

To solve for x in the equation 3x + 2 = x + 8, we first need to get all the x terms on one side of the equation and the constant terms on the other side.

3x + 2 = x + 8
Subtract x from both sides:
2x + 2 = 8
Subtract 2 from both sides:
2x = 6
Divide by 2:
x = 3

Therefore, the answer is C. 3.
