When the problem asks to evaluate an expression often means to test certain variable with a specific value. However, in this case, evaluating this equation refers to solving it to see if the equation is true or false. So, let's solve it
The first step is to solve products:
Then, we solve the difference:
As you can observe, 17 isn't equal to 12, which means the initial expression is completely false.
Therefore, according to the evaluation, the expression is false.
