Carlos solved the system of equations below. what mistake did he make in his work?

2x + y = 5
x βˆ’ 2y = 10

y = 5 βˆ’ 2x
x βˆ’ 2(5 βˆ’ 2x) = 10
x + 10 + 4x = 10
5x + 10 = 10
5x = 0
x = 0

2(0) + y = 5
y = 5

he should have substituted 5 + 2x

he did not distribute correctly

he combined like terms incorrectly, it should have been 4x instead of 5x

he made no mistake
