Since the variable is the same, and of the same power, just add the like terms together.
5x+2x+x = 8x.

5x+2x+x = (5+2+1)x = 8x add the coefficients with the same variable; you know, like adding oranges to oranges

if you put a 1 next to the x that doesn't have any number you can figur it out
5+2+1=8 and x+x+x=x and 8+x=8x so its 8x
