x=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Collect like terms ... 6x+5=5x+8+2x (meaning add 5x+2x)
=6x+5=7x+8
Step2: Move Like variables to one side of the equation and change the signs of each ... = 6x-7x=8-5
Step3: collect like terms = 6x-7x = - 1x or - x ... and 8-5=3
Step 4: since a variable cannot be negative, you change the sign to the opposite side of the equation which would be x=-3

combine all like terms
6x+5=7x+8
then you get all the x's on one side
-x=3
get x by itself
x=-3
