Answer: D) No; If x is 5, the expression on the left simplifies to 8, making the inequality false.

In other words, if x = 5, then x+3 becomes 5+3 which ultimately becomes 8, but this is not greater than 8 on the right side.

Your steps could look like this

x+3 > 8

5+3 > 8 ... replace x with 5

8 > 8 ... this is a false inequality
