Answer:

Given the expression -3 - 4(2x- 3) the correct solution is -8x + 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Andy wrote -14x + 21, so his error was to do de substraction (-3 -4) and then distribute -7(2x-3) = -14x+ 21.

Sylvie wrote -8x -6. Her error was to multiplied -4 only for 2x,

then -3 - 4(2x -3) = -3 -8x -3 = -8x -6.
