The equation is true. This can be verified by solving for x:
3x - 4 = 8 + 2x
Subtract 2x from both sides:
x - 4 = 8
Add 4 to both sides:
x = 12
Therefore, the equation is true when x is equal to 12.
3x - 4 = 8 + 2x
Subtract 2x from both sides:
x - 4 = 8
Add 4 to both sides:
x = 12
Therefore, the equation is true when x is equal to 12.
