Answer:

x =  -21.5

Step-by-step explanation:

1st switch sides:  -3x + 8 + 5x = -35

2nd group like terms: -3x+5x+8=-35

3rd add similar elements: -3x+5x=2x

2x+8=-35

5th subtract 8 from both sides: 2x+8-8=-35-8

6th simplify: 2x=-43

7th divide both sides by 2: 2x/2 = -43/2

8th simplify: x = -21.5

I am joyous to assist :)
