x-8-4x+5=-3\left(x-3\right)-12
Use the distributive property to multiply -4 by 2+x.
-3x-8+5=-3\left(x-3\right)-12
Combine x and -4x to get -3x.
-3x-3=-3\left(x-3\right)-12
Add -8 and 5 to get -3.
-3x-3=-3x+9-12
Use the distributive property to multiply -3 by x-3.
-3x-3=-3x-3
Subtract 12 from 9 to get -3.
-3x-3+3x=-3
Add 3x to both sides.
-3=-3
Combine -3x and 3x to get 0.
\text{true}
Compare -3 and -3.
x\in \mathrm{C}
This is true for any x.
