View full question & answer→False.
$2x + 5 = 8 $
$\Rightarrow 2x + 5 - 5 = 8 - 5$ [Subtracting $5$ from both the sides]
$\Rightarrow 2x = 3$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{3}{2}$ and not $\text{x}=\frac{2}{3}$
$2x + 5 = 8 $
$\Rightarrow 2x + 5 - 5 = 8 - 5$ [Subtracting $5$ from both the sides]
$\Rightarrow 2x = 3$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{3}{2}$ and not $\text{x}=\frac{2}{3}$
