8-5x=8%2B5x Start with the given equation.


-5x=8%2B5x-8 Subtract 8 from both sides.


-5x-5x=8-8 Subtract 5x from both sides.


-10x=8-8 Combine like terms on the left side.


-10x=0 Combine like terms on the right side.


x=%280%29%2F%28-10%29 Divide both sides by -10 to isolate x.


x=0 Reduce.
