To solve for [tex]\( e \)[/tex] in the equation [tex]\( e - 8 = 3 \)[/tex], follow these steps:
1. Start with the given equation:
[tex]\[
e - 8 = 3
\][/tex]
2. Add 8 to both sides of the equation to isolate [tex]\( e \)[/tex]:
[tex]\[
e - 8 + 8 = 3 + 8
\][/tex]
3. Simplify both sides:
[tex]\[
e = 11
\][/tex]
So, the value of [tex]\( e \)[/tex] is [tex]\( 11 \)[/tex].
