−13q+6

Answer 1

To expand \( 13(q - 6) \) using the Distributive Property, you multiply \( 13 \) by each term inside the parentheses:

\[
13(q - 6) = 13 \cdot q + 13 \cdot (-6)
\]

This simplifies to:

\[
13q - 78
\]

However, this option is not provided in the responses given. Let's review the options again and clarify what’s going on:

1. \( 13q - 2 \)
2. \( \frac{1}{3} q - 2 \)
3. \( 13q - 6 \)
4. \( \frac{1}{3} q - 6 \)
5. \( -13q + 2 \)
6. \( -13q + 6 \)

None of these responses appears to match \( 13q - 78 \). If the goal is solely to factor and expand correctly, the answer remains \( 13q - 78 \).

If you were looking specifically for a miscalculation or to find the intended option, please clarify further!
