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
