Answer:

6x - 18

Step-by-step explanation:

3 x 6 = 18, so thats how you get the 18 in the answer

3 x 2x = 6x, which is how you get the 6x

and theres  a subraction sign so we know to put a - there.

Answer:

6x - 18

Step-by-step explanation:

3(2x - 6) =

("... - 6" means that whatever we do with the 6, we have to remember that it's negative)

3(2x - 6) =

3 * 2x + 3 * (-6) =

6x + (-18) =

(if we add a negative number then it's the same as subtracting that number)

6x + (-18) = 6x - 18
