Simplify both sides.
3x%2B6-5x-10x%2B9-6x%2Bx=%283x-5x-10x-6x%2Bx%29%2B%286%2B9%29
3x%2B6-5x-10x%2B9-6x%2Bx=%28-17x%29%2B%2815%29
3x%2B6-5x-10x%2B9-6x%2Bx=-17x%2B15

10%2B2x-25%2B15x-3-8x%2B9=%282x%2B15x-8x%29%2B%2810-25%2B9%29
10%2B2x-25%2B15x-3-8x%2B9=%289x%29%2B%28-6%29
10%2B2x-25%2B15x-3-8x%2B9=9x-9

However without knowing what the value of x is you cannot determine which side has greater value than the other.
The only thing you could say would be that one side equals the other, for all values of x, but that's not the case here.
Cannot be determined.

If this is an inequality, you can determine the range of x where this is true.
-17x%2B15%3E=9x-9
-26x%3E=-24
x%3C=12%2F13
