Answer:

$\huge\boxed{-6}$

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!
