2x - 5   = 3x + 3
2x - 3x = 3 + 5
        -x = 8
         x = -8

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Algebra is based on the concept of unknown values called variables, the value of each variable must remain the same in each problem.

Here are steps to solve your problem!

1. Pull out like terms:

-x - 8  =   -1 • (x + 8)

2. Solve  -x-8 = 0

Add 8 to both sides of the equation:

-x = 8

Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1)

x = -8

Therefore, x = -8

Hope this Helps!
