Answer:

the answer is -22

Explanation:

-k -(3k - 6n) + 2n

when k = -3 & n = -5

substitute the values of k and n

-(-3) -[3(-5) - 6(-5)] + 2(-5)

3 - [-15 - (-30)] + (-10 )

3 - ( -15 + 30 ) - 10

3 - 15 - 10

-12 - 10

-22

hope this helps (^▽^)

Steps to solve:

-k - (3k - 6n) + 2n; k = -3, n = -5

~Substitute and simplify

-(-3) - (3(-3) - 6(-5)) + 2(-5)

3 - (-9 + 30)) - 10

~Use PEMDAS and solve the rest.

3 - 21 - 10

-18 - 10

-28

Best of Luck!
