Answer:
The answer is: 2v - 6u + 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The negative 2, or -2, will be multiplied by each item:
-2(-v + 3u - 6) =
-2*-v + (-2*3u) + (-6*-2) =
2v - 6u + 12
The rule for multiplication is that all like signs are positive. So a negative times a negative is positive. All others are negative, such as a negative times a positive.
