8x+5=5+6x
1. Get variables on the same side by subtracting 6x from both sides.
8x-6x+5=5+6x-6x
2x+5=5
2. Move all the constants to the side opposite of the variable side. (5 is a constant. Any value without an x.)
2x+5-5=5-5
2x=0
3. Get the x by itself by dividing both sides by 2.
2x/2=0/2
x=0
Your final answer is x=0
