Answer 2

`7y - 4x`

Explanation:

`-3 (2x-y)+2y+2(x+y)\\`

Step 1: Open the brackets

`= -6x+3y +2y +2(x+y)\\=-6x +3y + 2y +2x + 2y`

Step 2: Bring the similar variables together

`=-6x +2x \ +3y + 2y + 2y`

Step 3: Simplify by adding/subtracting the coefficients of the similar variables

`= - 4x +7y`

Step 4: Rearrange as required.
