Solve for X: Finding the Solution to (x - 3 + 5 = 8 - 2)

Question

Solve for X:

$x - 3 + 5 = 8 - 2$

Step-by-Step Solution

First, simplify both sides of the equation:

Left side: $x - 3 + 5 = x + 2$

Right side: $8 - 2 = 6$

Now the equation is: $x + 2 = 6$

Subtract 2 from both sides to isolate $x$ :

$x + 2 - 2 = 6 - 2$

Simplifying gives:

$x = 4$
