To solve the equation x + 3 = 2x - 5, follow these steps:

Step 1: Rearrange the Equation

First, let's get all the terms involving x on one side and the constant terms on the other side. Subtract x from both sides:

x + 3 - x = 2x - 5 - x

This simplifies to:

3 = x - 5

Step 2: Isolate x

Next, add 5 to both sides to isolate x:

3 + 5 = x - 5 + 5

This gives:

8 = x

Final Answer

Thus, the solution to the equation is:

x = 8
