The given equation is-

[tex]3x-3+5x=37[/tex]

First, we reduce like terms

[tex]8x-3=37[/tex]

Now, we sum 3 on each side

[tex]\begin{gathered} 8x-3+3=37+3 \\ 8x=40 \end{gathered}[/tex]

At last, we divide the equation by 8

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{8x}{8}=\frac{40}{8} \\ x=5 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the solution is 5.
