-24-5x=6-8x
what is x i need to find out what is x has to
be the same for both sides

When you solve the equation there will be ONLY
one value for x, so of course it will be the same on
both sides of the equation.

-24 - 5x = 6 - 8x
-24 - 5x + 8x = 6 - 8x + 8x
-24 + 3x = 6
-24 + 3x + 24 = 6 + 24
3x = 30
3x / 3 = 30 / 3
x = 10

Substitute that into the original equation.

-24 - 5x = 6 - 8x
-24 - 5(10) = 6 - 8(10)
-24 - 50 = 6 - 80
-74 = -74
