To subtract (3g−4)−2(3g+4), we need to distribute the -2 to the terms inside the parentheses:

(3g−4)−2(3g+4) = 3g−4−6g−8

Next, we can combine like terms by adding or subtracting the coefficients of the same variable:

= (3g - 6g) + (-4 - 8)

Simplifying further:

= -3g - 12

So, (3g−4)−2(3g+4) simplifies to -3g - 12.

To subtract 2(10b+4)−(b−2), we first distribute the 2 to the terms inside the first parentheses:

2(10b+4) = 20b + 8

Next, we distribute the negative sign to the terms inside the second parentheses:

-(b - 2) = -b + 2

Now, we can subtract the two expressions:

20b + 8 - (-b + 2)

= 20b + 8 + b - 2 (remember that subtracting a negative number is the same as adding a positive number)

= (20b + b) + (8 - 2)

= 21b + 6

So, 2(10b+4)−(b−2) simplifies to 21b + 6.

I apologize for the mistake. Let's correct it.

To subtract 2(10b+4)−(b−2), we follow the order of operations. First, we distribute the 2 to the terms inside the first parentheses:

2(10b+4) = 20b + 8

Now, let's distribute the negative sign to the terms inside the second parentheses:

-(b - 2) = -b + 2

Now, we substitute these simplified expressions back into the original expression:

20b + 8 - (-b + 2)

Next, we distribute the negative sign to the terms inside the second parentheses:

20b + 8 + b - 2

Now, let's combine like terms:

20b + b + 8 - 2

Simplifying further:

21b + 6

So, 2(10b+4)−(b−2) simplifies to 21b + 6. I apologize for the previous incorrect response.

I apologize for the confusion. Let's go through the subtraction correctly.

To subtract 2(10b+4)−(b−2), we distribute the 2 to the terms inside the first parentheses:

2(10b+4) = 20b + 8

Now, let's distribute the negative sign to the terms inside the second parentheses:

-(b - 2) = -b + 2

Now, we substitute these simplified expressions back into the original expression:

20b + 8 - (-b + 2)

Next, remember that subtracting a negative is the same as adding a positive:

20b + 8 + b - 2

Now, let's combine like terms:

(20b + b) + (8 - 2)

Simplifying further:

21b + 6

So, 2(10b+4)−(b−2) simplifies to 21b + 6. I apologize for the confusion earlier.

To subtract 2(10b+4)−(b−2) without simplifying further, we follow the order of operations.

First, we distribute the 2 to the terms inside the first parentheses:

2(10b+4) = 20b + 8

Next, we distribute the negative sign to the terms inside the second parentheses:

-(b - 2) = -b + 2

Now, we substitute these simplified expressions back into the original expression:

20b + 8 - (-b + 2)

To subtract the second set of parentheses, we change the signs of all the terms inside:

20b + 8 + b - 2

Finally, we combine like terms:

20b + b + 8 - 2

This can be further simplified as:

21b + 6

So, 2(10b+4)−(b−2) is equal to 21b + 6.

Apologies for the confusion. Let's solve it again correctly.

To subtract 2(10b+4)−(b−2):

First, distribute the 2 to the terms inside the first parentheses:

2(10b+4) = 20b + 8

Next, we distribute the negative sign to the terms inside the second parentheses:

-(b - 2) = -b + 2

Now, substitute these simplified expressions back into the original expression:

20b + 8 - (-b + 2)

To subtract the second set of parentheses, change the signs of all the terms inside:

20b + 8 + b - 2

Combine like terms:

(20b + b) + (8 - 2) = 21b + 6

So, the correct answer is 21b + 6.
