It's not an equation. To be an equation, there
has to be an " = " sign somewhere.
------------------
It looks like what you did is type "+" instead of "="
since they're on the same key.
------------------
+6x+-+10+=+-3x+%2B+8+
Add +3x+ to both sides
+9x+-+10+=+8+
Add +10+ to both sides
+9x+=+18+
Divide both sides by +9+
+x+=+2+
