Answer:

8

Explanation:

Order of operations rules require that we evaluate the expressions inside parentheses first. (9 + 3) becomes (12) and (6 - 7) becomes -1.

Then the original expression becomes (12) + 4(-1).

This in turn becomes 12 - 4, which is 8. Please double-check to ensure that you have copied down the four possible answers correctly.
