To solve for x, we need to combine like terms and isolate the variable.

Starting with the given equation:

3x - 7 - 2x + 5 = 6

We can simplify by combining the like terms:

(3x - 2x) + (-7 + 5) = 6

x - 2 = 6

To isolate x, we need to get rid of the constant term (-2) by adding 2 to both sides of the equation:

x - 2 + 2 = 6 + 2

x = 8

So the solution for x is x = 8.
