An expressions equated to another expression is called an equation
An equation is an expression that is used to show the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.
Given that a = 5, hence:
2a + 5
substituting values:
2(5) + 5 = 10 + 5 = 15
2a + 5 = 15
The sum of twice and four times of the variable x is 2x + 4x = 6x

3x-2-(2x+1)= 3x-2-2x-1
= x- 3
C. x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
the x distance from A to B is 3 (from -1 to 2), and the y distance is 15 (from -4 to 11).
the x distance from C to D is also 3 (from 1 to 4), but the y distance is 9 (from 1 to 10).
so, the slopes are different
AB : 15/3 = 5
CD : 9/3 = 3
and the lines are therefore not parallel.
perpendicular slopes are simply inverting y and x in the ratio and flip the sign (from - to + and vice versa). but that is not the case here either (just to start - both slopes are positive).
so, the 2 lines are "neither".
