Answer:

9z+15

Explanation:

-3(-6z-5)-9z

You multiply 3 by the numbers in the *( ) and get

18z+15-9z

Then you add any number with the same variable.

18z with -9z is 9z because different signs means subtract and same signs mean to add.

Then this should be your results.

9z+15

P.S Just in case use GOOGLE or the calculator to double check.

You're Welcome!
