Is this problem true or false? 5+3(x-4)=8(x-4)=8x-32
---------
Statements are true or false.
Problems are solved.
-----
5+3(x-4)=8(x-4)=8x-32
----
If you mean to ask, is 5 + 3(x-4) = 8(x-4),
probably not.
If it's (5+3)*(x-4), then it's equal.
Using PEMDAS rules, it's false.
------------
I'll say False, for $1000.
