-5abs + -3absx = (2abs + 2absx)

Solving
-5abs + -3absx = 2abs + 2absx

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-2abs' to each side of the equation.
-5abs + -2abs + -3absx = 2abs + -2abs + 2absx

Combine like terms: -5abs + -2abs = -7abs
-7abs + -3absx = 2abs + -2abs + 2absx

Combine like terms: 2abs + -2abs = 0
-7abs + -3absx = 0 + 2absx
-7abs + -3absx = 2absx

Add '-2absx' to each side of the equation.
-7abs + -3absx + -2absx = 2absx + -2absx

Combine like terms: -3absx + -2absx = -5absx
-7abs + -5absx = 2absx + -2absx

Combine like terms: 2absx + -2absx = 0
-7abs + -5absx = 0
