Question

What is the answer to this?

Answer 1

`\huge\boxed{-6}`

Explanation:

Since we know the values of a, b, and c, we can substitute them into our expression and get the value.

`-2b + | -3c + a |\\\\-2(6) + |-3(-3) + -3 |`

A negative multiplied by a negative gets us a positive.

`-2(6) + |9 + -3 |`

Adding a negative is the same as subtracting a positive.

`-2(6) + |9 -3 |\\-2(6) + 6`

`-2 \cdot 6 = -12\\\\-12+6\\\\-6`

Hope this helped!
