Question

Group of answer choices

−18g + 2

−18g − 12

−18g − 4

−3g − 4

Answer 1

To simplify the expression \(-6(3g + 2)\), you distribute \(-6\) to both terms inside the parentheses:

\[ -6(3g) + (-6)(2) = -18g - 12 \]

So the simplified expression is:

\(-18g - 12\)

Therefore, the correct choice is:

\(-18g - 12\)
