In the equation 2(3x - 3) = 9x + 9, what is the result after distributing?

• 6x - 6 = 9x + 9

• 3x - 3 = 9x + 9

• 6x - 6 = 9x - 9

• 6x - 3 = 9x + 9

What operation should you perform to move a variable term from one side of the equation to the other?

• Addition

• Subtraction

• Multiplication

• Division

In the equation -2(9H - 40) + 11H = 79 - 4(3H - 14), what is the result after distributing?

• -18H - 80 + 11H = 79 + 12H - 56

• -18H - 80 + 11H = 79 - 12H - 56

• -18H + 80 + 11H = 79 - 12H + 56

• -18H + 80 + 11H = 79 + 12H + 56
