Given the numerical expression:

2x + y = 5x - y =4

This can be written as,

2x + y = 5x -y -4 

Solution:

The numerical expression can be simplified by combining similar terms. Start first by transposing 5x - y -4 on the other side of the equation. Note that when transposing a number, the sign changes.

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

= -3x + 2y +4

Final answer:

= -3x + 2y +4
