Answer:

  • Assuming choice D is -14-12g, then it would be choice D.
  • If it is supposed to be -14-12, then there is no such solution in choice

Explanation:

Here, in order to make an equivalent expression, we need to know the concept of the distributive property.

  • c(a+b)=ac+bc

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Solve

-2(7+6g)

=(-2×7)+(-2×6g)

=-14-12g

Hope this helps!! :)
