Hi!

I can help you with a smile! :)

  • Remember that the Distributive Property states that

  • \rm{a(b+c)=ab+ac
  • In this case, we should multiply 6 by evetything inside the parentheses:
  • 6(x-2)
  • 6 times x minus 6 times 2:
  • 6x - 12

Answer:


\rm}6x-12}\checkmark

Hope it helps.

Feel free to ask if you have any queries regarding my answer.
