I am assuming that you meant to say a and b not =0
so from A we know a+b=6 SUFF
from B we know a+b=+/- 6 INSUFF

Ans A

from question we know
2m+1=n+2
hence 2m=n+1

A tells us that 3n-1=8
hence 3n=9
n=3
thus m=2
so m+n=5
A SUFF

B we know m+n=5

Ans D

Yes 5 works I agree.

But there is still considerable confusion among members of this forum

I want to know WHY each answer choice is wrong, not just that 5 is right --
even if its a trivial explanation.

Moderators and others, please spend a few more minutes on it.
