Step-by-step explanation:
By using the distributive formula, you can solve this:
-a(b - c + d) = -ab + ac - ad
-3(4x - 5y + 6) + 8x - 9
Use distributive property:
-12x + 15y - 18 + 8x - 9
Add/Subtract by the common terms:
-12x + 8x = -4x
-18 - 9 = - 27
Plug it back into an equation:
= -4x + 15y - 27
That is your answer!!
Hope that helped

Answer:
-4x + 15y - 27
Step-by-step explanation:
-3 (4x -5y + 6) = -3*4x, -3* -5y and -3*6
-3*4x= -12x
-3*-5y= 15y
-3*6= -18
-12x + 15y -18 +8x - 9
Combine like terms (-12x + 8x) and (-18 - 9)
12-8 = 4 and 18+9 = 27 now flip the signs, add the variables back on (the letters) and carry down what was remaining (15y)
-4x + 15y -27
