If x+y=4a+7 and x-y=2a+5, solve for x in terms of a A. 2a+2
B. 2a+5
C. 2a+6
D. 3a+4
E. 3a+6

A

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 4a + 7

x - y = 2a + 5

In both equations, make x the subject of the formula

x = 4a + 7 - y equation 1  

x = 2a + 5 + y equation 2

Subtract equation 2 from equation 1

2a + 2 -2y

= 2a + 2

option 3 . (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

step-by-step explanation:

option 1 :

(4x + 3) + (-9x + 4)

or 4x+3 -9x + 4

or -5x + 7

option 2

(x - 2) - (6x - 9)

or x-2-6x + 9

or -5x + 7

option 3

(5x+ + 6)

or 5x + 1 + 10x -6

or 15x -5

option 4

-4x+2x+7-3x

-7x + 2x + 7

-5x + 7

hence only option 3 did   not satisfy the given simplify expression.
