Answer:


\Longrightarrow: \boxed{\sf{-6x-14}}

Explanation:

In order to solve this, you need to expand by the distributive property.

Distributive property:


\Longrightarrow: \sf{A(B+C)=AB+AC}


\Longrightarrow: \sf{A(B-C)=AB-AC}

-6(x+2)-2

Expand.

-6*x=-6x

-6*2=-12

Then, rewrite the expression down.

-6x-12

-6x-12-2

Subtract the numbers from left to right.

-12-2=-14


\Longrightarrow: \boxed{\sf{-6x-14}}

  • Therefore, the correct answer is -6x-14.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions.

Good luck with your assignment!
