Well, honey, first you need to combine like terms. So, gather up those x's on one side and the constants on the other. Then, simplify by adding or subtracting as needed. Finally, solve for x by isolating it on one side of the equation. Voila, you've cracked the code!

You add 8x to each side. This gives you 5 = 16. Since this has no solution, the original equation doesn't have any solution, either.
2x2 = 8x x = 8x/2x x = 4 Check: 2(4)2 = 8(4) 2(16) = 32 32 = 32
First, you have to add 3 to each side to get 8X = 19. Next, you have to divide both sides by 8 to get X = 19/8
3-|8x-6|=3
It is an expression that can be simplified to: -8x-4
