The solution

You have entered [src]
5*x - 8 = 2*x + 6
$$5 x - 8 = 2 x + 6$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
5*x-8 = 2*x+6

Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$5 x = 2 x + 14$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$3 x = 14$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 3
x = 14 / (3)

We get the answer: x = 14/3
