Ok, so

We want to substract:


6(y-2)

From 8y+6.

For this, we can follow the steps given:

Step A: Write the problem as the subtraction of the two expressions.


(8y-6)-6(y-2)

This is the order because we are substracting 6(y-2) from (8y-6). This is specified in the given question.

Step B: Rewrite any subtraction as addition of the additive inverse. This is:


(8y+(-6))+(-6(y+(-2))

And now, apply the distributive property, simplify, combine like terms, and state the answer.


\begin{gathered} 8y-6+(-6y+12) \\ 8y-6-6y+12 \\ =2y+6 \end{gathered}
