\[8x-5=6x-1\]
1
Add 55 to both sides.
8x=6x−1+58x=6x-1+5

2
Simplify  6x−1+56x-1+5  to  6x+46x+4.
8x=6x+48x=6x+4

3
Subtract 6x6x from both sides.
8x−6x=48x-6x=4

4
Simplify  8x−6x8x-6x  to  2x2x.
2x=42x=4

5
Divide both sides by 22.
x=42x=\frac{4}{2}

6
Simplify  42\frac{4}{2}  to  22.
x=2x=2

Done
