Use the distributive property to remove the parentheses. -3(3x-9y)
To remove the parentheses using the distributive property, we need to multiply -3 by both terms inside the parentheses:
-3 * 3x = - 9x
-3 * -9y = 27y
Therefore, -3(3x - 9y) = -9x + 27y
To remove the parentheses using the distributive property, we need to multiply -3 with each term inside the parentheses.
-3(3x-9y) = -3 * 3x - 3 * (-9y)
This simplifies to:
-9x + 27y
