True or false, Religion was not important to the Gupta rulers.

False

Explanation:

Step 1:  Find the answer

First of all, the founder of the Gupta empire was King Chelikito, who, according to the 7th century Chinese Buddhist monk Yijing.  It also states that he built a temple near another city.  Therefore, it makes sense to believe that the did care about religion.  So... the answer is false

According to apworldhistory101.com, it states the following:  "The Gupta Dynasty had strong Hinduism beliefs. Both Buddhism and Hinduism were widely prevalent. The characteristic features of Hinduism enabled it to survive whereas the features of Buddhism led to its final decline. The rulers of the Gupta dynasty were all Hindu which is one reason the Buddhists were driven out."

False

honestly i really it keep confusion down on some sides

8 - (2a + 7) = a + 40     distribute/multiply - into (2a + 7)

8 - 2a - 7 = a + 40

1 - 2a = a + 40       add 2a on both sides

1 = 3a + 40         subtract 40 on both sides

-39 = 3a       divide 3 on both sides

-13 = a

[proof]

8 - (2a + 7) = a + 40

8 - (2(-13) + 7) = -13 + 40

8 - (-26 + 7) = 27

8 - (-19) = 27

8 + 19 = 27

27 = 27
