Answer:

The correct answer is 63k + 42m.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we must remember how to use the distributive property. The distributive property tells us that if we have a coefficient outside of the parentheses (in this case, 7), we can multiply each term inside the parentheses by this coefficient and add the products together. This is modeled below:

7(9k + 6m)

(7*9k) + (7 * 6m)

63k + 42m

Therefore, the correct answer is 63k + 42m.

Hope this helps!
