3x - 8 + 6x = 7 wat is the answer

  " x = 5 " .

Solve for "x"  ;  Given:  " -3x - 8 + 6x = 7 " ;

Combine the "like terms" on the left-hand side of the equation:

-3x + 6x = + 3x ;

Rewrite the equation:

3x - 8 = 7 ;

Add "8" to EACH SIDE of the equation:

   3x - 8 + 8 = 7 + 8 ;

to get:

        3x = 15  ;

Divide EACH SIDE of the equation by "3" ; to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "x" ;

        3x / 3 = 15 / 3  ;

             x =  5  .
