Answer:

A. True

Explanation:

One of the ways to check this is solving each side of the equation.

(5+4)+10=5+(4+10)

Remember PEMDAS.

Parenthesis first.

(9)+10=5+(14)

Now, you can drop the parenthesis and add the numbers together.

9+10=19

5+14=19

19=19

This is a true statement.

Hope this helps!

If not, I am sorry.
