Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

5x + -6 = 4x + 8

Reorder the terms:

-6 + 5x = 4x + 8

Reorder the terms:

-6 + 5x = 8 + 4x

Solving

-6 + 5x = 8 + 4x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-4x' to each side of the equation.

-6 + 5x + -4x = 8 + 4x + -4x

Combine like terms: 5x + -4x = 1x

-6 + 1x = 8 + 4x + -4x

Combine like terms: 4x + -4x = 0

-6 + 1x = 8 + 0

-6 + 1x = 8

Add '6' to each side of the equation.

-6 + 6 + 1x = 8 + 6

Combine like terms: -6 + 6 = 0

0 + 1x = 8 + 6

1x = 8 + 6

Combine like terms: 8 + 6 = 14

1x = 14

Divide each side by '1'.

x = 14

Simplifying

x = 14
