Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
8x + -5 = 6x + 8
Reorder the terms:
-5 + 8x = 6x + 8
Reorder the terms:
-5 + 8x = 8 + 6x
Solving
-5 + 8x = 8 + 6x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-6x' to each side of the equation.
-5 + 8x + -6x = 8 + 6x + -6x
Combine like terms: 8x + -6x = 2x
-5 + 2x = 8 + 6x + -6x
Combine like terms: 6x + -6x = 0
-5 + 2x = 8 + 0
-5 + 2x = 8
Add '5' to each side of the equation.
-5 + 5 + 2x = 8 + 5
Combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0
0 + 2x = 8 + 5
2x = 8 + 5
Combine like terms: 8 + 5 = 13
2x = 13
Divide each side by '2'.
x = 6.5
Simplifying
x = 6.5
