Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

8x + 5 = 3x + -8

Reorder the terms:

5 + 8x = 3x + -8

Reorder the terms:

5 + 8x = -8 + 3x

Solving

5 + 8x = -8 + 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.

5 + 8x + -3x = -8 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 8x + -3x = 5x

5 + 5x = -8 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0

5 + 5x = -8 + 0

5 + 5x = -8

Add '-5' to each side of the equation.

5 + -5 + 5x = -8 + -5

Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0

0 + 5x = -8 + -5

5x = -8 + -5

Combine like terms: -8 + -5 = -13

5x = -13

Divide each side by '5'.

x = -2.6
