plz help quick
ooo whoopsies I meant C
- 9 - 6 ( w + 5 ) =
- 9 - 6 ∙ w - 6 ∙ 5 =
- 9 - 6 w - 30 =
- 6 w - 39
C looks good
To simplify the expression -9 - 6(w + 5), you need to distribute the -6 to both terms inside the parentheses.
-6 multiplied by w gives you -6w, and -6 multiplied by 5 gives you -30.
So now, the expression becomes -9 - 6w - 30.
Next, you can combine the like terms, which are the constants (-9 and -30) and the coefficients of the same variable (-6w).
-9 - 30 gives you -39.
Therefore, the simplified expression is -6w - 39.
Among the answer choices you provided:
a.. -15w + 5
b.. -15w + 30
c.. -6w - 39
d.. -6w + 21
The correct answer is c. -6w - 39.
