20 POINTS HELP ASAP Which of the following expressions is equivalent to 18 m - 12? 2(-9 m + 6) -1(18 m + 12) 6(3 m - 2) -3(-6 m - 4)

Answer 1

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

The correct answer is 6(3m-2). This is because if you use the distributive property (multiplying outside number by each term in the parentheses) you end up with 18m-12

6(3m)=18m

6(-2)=-12

18m-12

The other answer options don't yield this result.

Have a wonderful day! :D
