transitive property of equality because you substituted x by 8

In tis question it is given that,

If x = y + 2 and y + 2 = 8, then x = 8.

Let's check out transitive property  which states that

If

\(a=b \ and \ b=c\)

Then,

\(a=c\)

In this question,

\(a=x , b=y+2,c=2\)

SO we can say that the given expression follows transitive property of equality .

And the correct option is the first option .
