Let's simplify the expression step by step:
-
Start with \( 2(3v + 9) - 14 - 6(-5v - 4) \).
-
Distribute the 2 into \( (3v + 9) \): \[ 2(3v) + 2(9) = 6v + 18 \]
-
Distribute the -6 into \( (-5v - 4) \): \[ -6(-5v) - 6(-4) = 30v + 24 \]
-
Now substitute these results back into the expression: \[ 6v + 18 - 14 + 30v + 24 \]
-
Combine like terms:
- For the \( v \) terms: \[ 6v + 30v = 36v \]
- For the constant terms: \[ 18 - 14 + 24 = 28 \]
-
Putting it all together: \[ 36v + 28 \]
The final simplified expression is \( 36v + 28 \).
So, the correct response is: 36v + 28.
