The solution

You have entered [src]
5 + 2*x = 3*(2*x - 5) - 8
$$2 x + 5 = 3 \left(2 x - 5\right) - 8$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
5+2*x = 3*(2*x-5)-8

Expand brackets in the right part
5+2*x = 3*2*x-3*5-8

Looking for similar summands in the right part:
5 + 2*x = -23 + 6*x

Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$2 x = 6 x - 28$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$\left(-4\right) x = -28$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -4
x = -28 / (-4)

We get the answer: x = 7
