Gloria Hunt · Answer 1

First subtract 3 from both sides, since you want x to be by itself on one side only. We subtract by 3 on both sides because we have to do the same thing to the right as we do to the left and vice versa.

X + 3 = 10

-3 - 3

X = 7

Your answer is 7°F at 8:00 with the model above.
