Hi there!

»»————- ★ ————-««

I believe your answer is:


\boxed{x = -4}

Here’s why:

⸻⸻⸻⸻


\boxed{\text{Solving for 'x'...}}\\\\3x - 5 = 5x + 3\\-----------\\\rightarrow 3x - 5 + 5 = 5x + 3 + 5\\\\\rightarrow 3x = 5x + 8\\\\\rightarrow 3x - 5x = 5x - 5x +8\\\\\rightarrow -2x = 8\\\\\rightarrow (-2x=8)/(-2)\\\\\rightarrow \boxed{x = -4}

⸻⸻⸻⸻

Hope this helps you. I apologize if it’s incorrect.
