Chapter 1.5, Problem 71STP

To determine

To find: The simplification of the expression $-6\left(r+3g-t\right)$ .

Answer to Problem 71STP

The simplification of the expression $-6\left(r+3g-t\right)$ is $-6r-18g+6t$ .

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The expression is $-6\left(r+3g-t\right)$ .

Calculation:

The expression $-6\left(r+3g-t\right)$ is simplified as follows:

  $\begin{array}{c}-6\left(r+3g-t\right)=\left(-6\times r\right)+\left(-6\times 3g\right)+\left(-6\times -t\right)\\ =-6r-18g+6t\end{array}$

Thus, the simplification of the expression $-6\left(r+3g-t\right)$ is $-6r-18g+6t$ .
