For this case we have the following equation:

[tex]6x + 5 = 5x + 8 + 2x[/tex]

We must find the solution.

We add similar terms from the right side of the equation:

[tex]6x + 5 = 7x + 8[/tex]

We subtract 5 from both sides of the equation:

[tex]6x = 7x + 8-5\\6x = 7x + 3[/tex]

We subtract 7x on both sides of the equation:

[tex]6x-7x = 3[/tex]

Different signs are subtracted and the sign of the major is placed:

[tex]-x = 3[/tex]

We multiply by -1 on both sides of the equation:[tex]x = -3[/tex]

Thus, the solution of the equation is [tex]x = -3[/tex]. -5 is not a solution to the equation.

Answer:

[tex]x = -3[/tex]. -5 is not a solution to the equation
