Solve the equation

-x+8+3x=x-6

fraction x = 17/2

Decimal = x=8.5

Mixed number = x=8 1/2

x = - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

-x+8+3x=x-6

The first step is to simplify both sides

8+2x=x-6

Now you want to put all the xs on one side and the other like terms on the other side (Subtract both sides by x and subtract both sides by 8 so the x is alone on one side)

x = - 14
