Answer:

The correct option is;

Choice A 4·(n - 3) - 6·n

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

Which gives;-6·n+(-12)+4·n

- 12 + 4·n-6·n = -2·n - 12 = - (2·n + 12)

The options given are Choice A and/or Choice B;

(Choice A) 4·(n - 3) - 6·n

Which can be simplified as follows;

4·(n - 3) - 6·n = 4·n - 12 - 6·n

Which gives;

4·n - 12 - 6·n = 4·n  - 6·n- 12 = -2·n - 12 = -(2·n + 12)

Therefore, 4·(n - 3) - 6·n is equivalent to -6·n+(-12)+4·n

For choice B, we have;

2·(2·n - 6) which gives;

2·(2·n - 6) = 4·n - 12

Therefore, 2·(2·n - 6) is not equivalent to -6·n+(-12)+4·n

Which gives the correct option as Choice A.

4(n-3)-6n
