The given equation is not the conditional equation.

Explanation:

A conditional equation is true only certain values of the numbers present in it.

for example x + 3 = 9 is true only, if x = 6

3x - 5 = 10 is true only, if x = 5

The given equation is an Identity equation in which both sides of the equation is equal.

3(x - 4) + 5x = 4x + 4(x - 3)

3x - 12 + 5x = 4x + 4x - 12

8x = 8x.
