[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To subtract the given expression, we first need to distribute the negative sign across each term in the parentheses.

(3b - 2c) - (6c + 2b) - (b + c) = 3b - 2c - 6c - 2b - b - c
Now, we can combine like terms.
3b - 2b - b - 2c - 6c - c = (3b - 2b - b) + (-2c - 6c - c)
Simplifying this further, we get:
= 0b - 9c
Since any number multiplied by 0 is 0, this simplifies to:
= -9c
Therefore, the subtracted expression is -9c.
