The first step is to combine like terms. So u would do 2-6. You then get -4 then u just bring everything else down. So now u should have this :

8x -4 = 4x + 8 + 3x

Now you do the same thing to the other side. U combine like terms which in this case are 4x and 3x. So u just do 4+3 which is 7 so now u have 7x. So now ur equation would be:

8x -4 = 7x +8

Now u do the inverse of 7 which would be -7 and u do that on both sides. So it would look like this :

8x -4 = 7x + 8
-7x. -7x

So now 7 and -7 cancel each other other and 8 -7 is 1 so now u have one x. So ur equation would now look like this:

1x -4 = 8

Now u do the inverse of negative 4 which is +4. So you would add 4 on both sides on both sides. Like shown:

1x -4 = 8
+4 +4

So u just add 8 + 4 which is 12. Now since anything times 1 is itself ur answer will be X=12

9/10-1/3-1/5 find the fraction

Zanzabum

Find a common multiple in between the denominators.
10 and 3 and 5 -> the least common multiple is 30.

Change all the denominators to 30 by multiplying the top and bottom by the same number.

9/10=27/30
1/3=10/30
1/5=6/30

Subtract!
27/39-10/30-6/30=11/30

The answer is 11/30

Hope this helps!
