Which statement explains why the two systems of equations below have the same solution?1. The first equation in B is the sum of the equations in A, while the other is obtained by multiplying the second equation in A by 6.2. The first equation in B is the sum of the equations in A, while the other is obtained by multiplying the first equation in A by 2.3. The equations in A are increased by 12 and -32 to get the equations in B.4. The equations in A are multiplied by 2 and 4 to get the equations in B
