    b. F

    c. F

    d. F

    No, because if x-5=12 its wrong, since 12=x so,

    12-5=7 so,

    x-5=12 and 12=x-5 is not equivalent

    I am going to explainmore thourouly x-5 = 12 is wrong because x subtracted by 5 equals 12 but we don't know what x was and since the other equation says 12 equals x minus 5 it means x=12 so 12-5=7 so the answers are not equivalent
