What is the simplified expression?

-6 (7k + 11) = - 49k - 66

Explanation:

We need to distribute the - 6 so that we can get rid of the parentheses.

To do that, we must multiply - 6 by each term that is inside the parentheses

-6 * 7k = - 49k

-6 * 11 = - 66

Let's put that together.

-49k - 66

So, - 6 (7k + 11) = - 49k - 66
