Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Separate | 2 + x | = | x - 8 | into 2 possibilities

2 + x = x - 8

2 + x = -x + 8 (right side's signs are swapped)

Solve the equations:

Top equation results in no solution as the x's cancel out.

2 + x = -x + 8

2x = 6

x = 3

| 2 + 3 | = | 3 - 8 |

| 5 | = | -5 |

5 = 5

This is the correct solution.

Let's solve the problem,

→ |2 + x| = |x - 8|

→ 2 + x = -(x - 8)

→ 2 + x = -x + 8

→ x + x = 8 - 2

→ x = 6/2 = 3

Hence, the value is 3.
