How did you install Blender? It seems you dont have it from the Software Store, neither you downlaoded a .deb file.

Did you compiled it yourself? Did you follow a instruction?

If you installed from snap, run:
sudo snap remove blender
If you installed from PPA, run:
sudo apt-get remove --autoremove blender
Edit: if you installed in /opt as you describe, run:
sudo rm -rf /opt/blender
When you install 2.8, you may wish to install with a package manager so it automatically updates:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:thomas-schiex/blender
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install blender

If you installed Blender like that:
tar -xjf blender--x86_64.tar.bz2
sudo mkdir /opt/blender
sudo cp -r blender--x86_64/* /opt/blender
Then you can just move the old version into an other directory:
sudo mv /opt/blender ~/blender_279
Then you can install the beta version via snap, so you get automatically the newest blender versions:
sudo snap install blender --beta
If you want to download and install blender by hand, you can still use your old method and download the new one: https://builder.blender.org/download/ and repeat the installation (extraction and copy the files to /opt/blender)
