You don't want to get rid of the 8 because that's the only term on that side of the inequality.

Add 2 to each side.

10>d

You add 2 to 8...

10 > d

1. 8>d-2

2. 8+2>d-2+2

3. 10>d or d>10

Remember, when you have an equality symbol, think of the symbol as an equal sign, then it's that same as solving an equation with an equals sign. Like: 2x=10
