Answer:

$\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{14x - 2}}}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf{8x + 3 + 6x - 5}$

Collect like terms.

Only coefficients of like terms can be added or subtracted

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{8x + 6x + 3 - 5}}$

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{14x + 3 - 5}}$

The negative and positive integers are always subtracted but posses the sign of the bigger integer

$\longrightarrow{ \sf{14x - 2}}$

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D
