ANSWER

[tex]x = 3. \bar3[/tex]

EXPLANATION

The given equation is

[tex]6 = 2(x + 8) - 5x[/tex]

We expand to get,

[tex]6 = 2x + 16 - 5x[/tex]

We combine similar terms,

[tex]5x - 2x = 16 - 6[/tex]

[tex]3x = 10[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{10}{3} [/tex]

[tex]x = 3 \frac{1}{3} [/tex]

[tex]x = 3. \bar3[/tex]

good job
