Best Answer

5x - 2 = x + 6 is an equation - a linear equation - in one variable, x.

That answers the question which was asked.

But, perhaps you wanted a solution to the equation but were too embarrassed to ask?

5x - 2 = x + 6

Subtract x from both sides: 4x - 2 = 6

Add 2 to both sides: 4x = 8

Divide both sides by 4: x = 2
