Final answer:

To solve the equation 8x=3x-10, subtract 3x from both sides to get 5x = -10. Divide both sides by 5 to find x = -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

This expression is a quadratic equation of the form ax²+bx+c = 0. In this case, the equation is 8x=3x-10.

To solve this equation, we can simplify it by subtracting 3x from both sides to get 5x = -10.

Finally, we can divide both sides by 5 to find that x = -2.
