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

Starting with the equation 3x - 7 - 2x + 5 = 6, we can combine the x terms:

3x - 2x = x

Next, we combine the constants:

-7 + 5 = -2

Our equation now becomes:

x - 2 = 6

To isolate x, we add 2 to both sides:

x - 2 + 2 = 6 + 2

Simplifying:

x = 8

Therefore, the solution is x = 8.
