x = 125

Practice makes perfect
To solve an equation, we should first gather all of the variable terms on one side and all of the constant terms on the other side using the Properties of Equality. In this case, the variable terms are already on the left-hand side of the equation, so we will start by combining like terms.
2x+6x=1000
8x=1000
8x/8=1000/8
8x/8=1000/8
x = 1000/8
x = 125
The solution to the equation is x=125.
