Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There is no given equation, so it is impossible to figure this out. I apologize.
To solve, we must get x by itself. the first step we must take is to remove all of the parentheses. To do this, we must use distribution to multiply 5 by x - 6.
5(x - 6) = 3x - 18 + 2x
5x - 30 = 3x - 18 + 2x
Next, we must add like terms.
5x - 30 = 5x - 18
Finally, we must get x by itself. to do this, we must subtract 5x from both sides.
5x - 30 - 5x = 5x - 18 - 5x
Then, we add like terms again.
-30 = -18
Because this is a false statement, the equation is a contradiction.

Answer:
- A Subtract the bottom equation from the top equation.
- B Add the equations.
Step-by-step explanation:
The x-terms are the same in each equation, so subtracting one equation from the other will eliminate the x-variable.
The y-terms are opposites in the two equations, so adding the two equations will eliminate the y-variable.
Both strategies (subtracting, adding) are applicable to this system of equations.
C. is the right answer I think so at least
