True/False

A retail manager uses the equation 6(2n1)+3=2n8+5(2n+1){}6(2n - 1) + 3 = 2n - 8 + 5(2n + 1) to verify that two different discount strategies will always result in the same final price for any number of items ordered, nn. After simplifying the equation to the true statement 3=3{}-3 = -3, the manager correctly concludes that the equation is an identity. True or False?
