Answer:

True.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out if the statement is true, just plug in 8 each time you see x.

3(8)+ 4 = 28

5(8) - 12 = 28

This proves the statement is true, x = 8.

Answer: 6 students

What we know:

Students: 24

Students who play checkers: $\frac{2}{3}$

Students who also play sudoku: $\frac{3}{8}$ of the $\frac{2}{3}$

24 ÷ 3 = 8, so 8 × 2 = 16 (students who play checkers)

$\frac{3}{8}$ × 2 = $\frac{6}{16}$

So the answer is,

6 students play both checkers and sudoku
