Answer:

The expression equivalent to 8 - (6r + 2) is -6r + 6 A

Explanation:

Let us solve the question

∵ The expression is 8 - (6r + 2)

→ Multiply the bracket by (-)

∵ (-) × (+) = (-)

∴ 8 - (6r + 2) = 8 - 6r - 2

→ Add the like terms

∵ 8 - (6r + 2) = (8 - 2) - 6r

∴ 8 - (6r + 2) = 6 - 6r

→ Switch the terms

∴ 8 - (6r + 2) = -6r + 6

The expression equivalent to 8 - (6r + 2) is -6r + 6
