Answer:

The correct option should have been
6x=6.

Explanation:

Given the expression


\left(2x\:+\:3y\right)\:+\:\left(4x\:-\:3y\right)\:=\:11+\left(-5\right)

solving the expression


\left(2x\:+\:3y\right)\:+\:\left(4x\:-\:3y\right)\:=\:11+\left(-5\right)

Remove parentheses: (a) = a


2x+3y+4x-3y=11-5

Group like terms


3y-3y+2x+4x=11-5

Add similar elements


6x=6

It is clear that not a single given option is
6x=6. It means no option is correct. It seems you mistyped the correct options.

The correct option should have been
6x=6.
