Let h = the number of horses in the field
Let c = number of cows in the field
There are 2 more horses than cows in the field. Therefore
h = c + 2
or
c = h - 2 (1)
There are 15 animals in the field. Therefore
h + c = 15 (2)
Substitute (1) into (2).
h + (h - 2) = 15
2h - 2 = 15
Answer:
The correct equation is
2h - 2 = 15

a-b =4
______subtract
(a-a)+(b-(-b))=6-4
0+2b = 2
b= 1
put the value of b at any equation
a+1 =6
then a=6-1=5
a square+b square= 25+1= 26
