Question

If A= -8 then is 14+3a=5 correct​

Answer 1

Answer: No, it is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation: I am pretty sure the answer would be -10. 3(-8) is equal to -24. Therefore, I think 14+(-24) is -10 and not 5.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation: No.

14 + 3(-8) = 5

14 + (-24) = 5

14 - 24 = 5

-10 = 5

This is not equal, so the statement 14 + 3(-8) = 5 is not correct.
