Solution

The correct option is A True

The given statement is as follows:

5 is the solution of the equation 3x+2=17

Here LHS is 3x+2 and RHS is 17

Now substitute x=5 in LHS. We get, 3×5+2=15+2=17

Which is equal to the RHS.

LHS=RHS

Hence 5 is the solution of the equation 3x+2=17.

Therefore the given statement is true.
