The answer is the first option because when you multiply the first equation by 2, you can cancel the x’s because when -2+2 is added it equals 0

Answer:

The first option

Explanation:

Because when you multiply the first equation by 2, it sets the -x to -2x which helps cancel the variable out allowing you to easily solve the system of equations.
