Answer 1

Answer:

D) -4(3x + 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Check:

Distribute the term outside the parenthesis (directly next to it) to all terms within the parenthesis:

A) -6(2x - 4) = (-6 * 2x) + (-6 * -4) = -12x + 24

B) -(12x - 6) + 18 = -12x + 6 + 18 = -12x + 24

C) -3(4x - 3) + 15 = (-3 * 4x) + (-3 * -3) + 15 = -12x + 9 + 15 = -12x + 24

D) -4(3x + 6) = (-4 * 3x) + (-4 * 6) = -12x - 24
