\sqrt{3}x+\sqrt{5}-3x=0
Subtract 3x from both sides.
\sqrt{3}x-3x=-\sqrt{5}
Subtract \sqrt{5} from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
\left(\sqrt{3}-3\right)x=-\sqrt{5}
Combine all terms containing x.
\frac{\left(\sqrt{3}-3\right)x}{\sqrt{3}-3}=-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{\sqrt{3}-3}
Divide both sides by \sqrt{3}-3.
x=-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{\sqrt{3}-3}
Dividing by \sqrt{3}-3 undoes the multiplication by \sqrt{3}-3.
x=\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2}+\frac{\sqrt{15}}{6}
Divide -\sqrt{5} by \sqrt{3}-3.
