goten77 · Answer

-6 -7(c +10)   distribute the -7
-6 -7c -70   ======the - 7 makes that a minus even though it says plus since a neg times a pos = a a neg
then combine like terms
-76-7c

2x + 3(x – 2) – 3(x – 6)

anonymous · Answer

2(x+6)

goten77 · Answer

again distribute then collect like terms
2x + 3(x-2) - 3(x-6)
2x+ (3x -6) -3x + 18
the 3x will cancel with -3x
2x-6+18
2x+12
