Question

-2(x -3) what number should be distributed

Answer 1

-2

-2 is on the outside of the parentheses, meaning it should be distributed to everything inside the parentheses

so, -2(x-3) is actually (-2x) + (-2 *-3)

Answer 2

-2

Explanation:

-2 needs to be distributed to the rest of the equation so that gives you -2x+6
