Answer:

-14x + 6

Explanation:

Starting with the given -3 ( 4x - 2) - 2x, we carry out the indicated multiplication first (mult. is always done before addition or subtraction):

-12x + 6 - 2x

Combining the x terms, we get -14x + 6. This matches the last of the answer choices which you have shared here.
