Answer:

-14x + 6 (option D)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the given equation, you first need to distribute the negative 3.

So, you need to multiply

(4x)(-3) ; (-2)(-3)

(4x)(-3)= -12x

(-2)(-3)= 6

So, your new, distributed, equation would be:

-12x + 6 - 2x

If we combine like terms (-12x - 2x), our new equation will be:

-14x + 6

The shampoo you like to use is on sale. But you only get the lower price if you buy 3 bottles...?

meriva

The sale price of 3 bottles of shampoo is 3s and the regular price is 3r. The amount of money you save will only come in when you buy 3. The cost you save is the difference between the regular price and the sale price. The equation is therefore,
c = 3r - 3s
