Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]8 - 2x = 5(x - 2)[/tex]

Multiply 5 inside the parenthesis

[tex]8 - 2x = 5x - 10[/tex]

Now we add 2x on both sides

[tex]8=7x-10[/tex]

Add 10 on both sides

[tex]18=7x[/tex]

Divide both sides by 7

x= 18/7

8 - 2x = 5x - 2 is not in the steps

Option C is the answer
