This is false, because the equation is then 12=2, which is incorrect.

1. Solve
8 + 4 = -5 + 7
12 = 2

Obviously 12 doesn't equal 2 so the equation is false. Here are the definitions:
True: The equation is true.
Example: 2 =2

False: The equation is false or not true.
Example: -2 = 2

Open: The equation is true or false depending on what the variable is.
Example: 2x = 2

No. If you still want the 46 7/8 square foot table and less than 6ft wide than the table length must be greater than 7 1/2 feet long. For the math to work out. Because, the 7 1/2 foot long table would need a 6 1/4 wide table to fit the 46 7/8 square foot.
