    There are no real solutions.

    Explanation:

    3x-8=3 (x-3) - 2

    3x+-8 = (3) (x) + (3) (-3) + -2

    3x+-8=3x+-9+-2

    3x-8 = (3x) + (-9+-2)

    3x-8=3x+-11

    3x-8=3x-11

    Step 2: Subtract 3x from both sides.

    3x-8-3x=3x-11-3x

    -8=-11

    Step 3: Add 8 to both sides.

    -8+8=-11+8

    0=-3
