03
-2x + 3
0-2x + 13
0 13

Answer 1

Option D: 13 is the solution of the expression.

Explanation:

The given expression is $8-[x-(5+x)]$

We need to simplify the expression.

Let us simplify the expression using the PEMDAS rule.

Thus, removing the parenthesis, we get,

$8-[x-5-x]$

Adding the terms within the parenthesis, we have,

$8-(-5)$

Simplifying the terms, we have,

$8+5$

Finally, adding the terms, we have,

13

Thus, the solution of the expression is 13

Hence, Option D is the correct answer.
