Answer:
[tex]\huge \boxed{x=41}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
First thing you do is add by 2 from both sides of equation.
[tex]\displaystyle x-2+2=3x-84+2[/tex]
Simplify.
[tex]\displaystyle x=3x-82[/tex]
Then you subtract by 3x from both sides of equation.
[tex]\displaystyle x-3x=3x-82-3x[/tex]
Simplify.
[tex]\displaystyle -2x=-82[/tex]
Divide by -2 from both sides of equation.
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{-2x}{-2}=\frac{-82}{-2}[/tex]
Simplify, to find the answer.
[tex]\displaystyle -82\div-2=41[/tex]
[tex]\large \boxed{x=41}[/tex], which is our answer.
