Question

Can you help me combine like terms of this expression: -9(6m - 3) + 6(1 + 4m)

Answer 1

-30m + 33

Step 1: Distribute -9 and 6:

(-9 * 6m) + (-9 * -3) + (6 * 1) + (6 * 4m

-54m + 27 + 6 + 24m

(-54m + 24m) + (27 + 6)

-30m + 33

Thus, the simplified expressions of -9(6m - 3) + 6(1 + 4m) is -30m + 33
