Answer:

x=1

Explanation:

6-3x=5x-10x+8=

move all terms to the left:

6-3x-(5x-10x+8)=0

add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-3x-(-5x+8)+6=0

get rid of parentheses

-3x+5x-8+6=0

add all the numbers together, and all the variables

2x-2=0

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

2x=2

x=2/2

x=1
