Answer:

Distributive and addition properties

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that an expression

[tex]5x+x-2[/tex]

Which is equivalent to [tex]6x-2[/tex]

The expression can be written as

[tex](5+1)x-2[/tex]

Using distributive property

[tex]a\cdot(b+c)=a\cdot b+a\cdot c[/tex]

Now, using addition property of integers

We get

[tex]6x-2[/tex]

Hence, the option C is true.
