Question 8

In Excel, formulas (like calculations, functions) start with the = sign to indicate it's a formula (not just text). So the statement is correct.

In Excel, SUM is a predefined operation (function) that performs addition. An argument is what's inside the function (like A1:A2), a constant is a fixed value, and a reference is a cell/range reference. So SUM is a function.

Answer:

True
