Assuming that your equation is:_

2X - 8 = -4X +3, adding 8 to both sides gives,

2X = -4X + 3 +8, gives

2X = -4X +11, then adding 4X to both sides,

6X = 11 which gives X = 11/6 = 1.83333.

your original equation was NOT an equation - that is an expression where two things were equal to each other.
