Alright, so we start off my subtracting 4a from both sides, separating the x and getting 10-4a=2x. Next, we divide both sides by 2, getting that 5-2a=X

Answer: The correct option is

(D)
x=5-2a.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to select the equivalent equation for the following equation :


2x+4a=10~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

To find the equivalent equation, we need to take x on one side and other terms on the other side of the equation.

From equation (i), we have


2x+4a=10\\\\\Rightarrow 2(x+2a)=10\\\\\Rightarrow x+2a=5\\\\\Rightarrow x=5-2a.

Thus, the required equivalent equation is
x=5-2a.

Option (D) is CORRECT.
