Simplifying
3x = 5x + -6

 Reorder the terms:
3x = -6 + 5x
 Solving
3x = -6 + 5x

Solving for variable 'x'.

 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
  Add '-5x' to each side of the equation.
3x + -5x = -6 + 5x + -5x
  Combine like terms: 3x + -5x = -2x
-2x = -6 + 5x
Combine like terms: 5x + -5x = 0
-2x = -6 + 0
-2x = -6

 Divide each side by '-2'.
x = 3
Simplifying
x = 3
