Respuesta :
The number will be "[tex]x = \frac{3}{2}[/tex]".
According to the question,
The equation will be:
- [tex](2x + 8) - 6 = 5[/tex]
By solving the bracket, we get
→ [tex]2x + 8 - 6 = 5[/tex]
→ [tex]2x +2 = 5[/tex]
By subtracting "2" from both sides, we get
→ [tex]2x+2-2= 5-2[/tex]
→ [tex]2x = 3[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{3}{2}[/tex]
Thus the above answer is correct.
