No, the simplification is not done correctly. When multiplying

$\frac{2}{3}\times-9$ we should get -6 instead of -9.

the correct answer is 12k-8

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to tell if process was done correctly. If not, explain and correct the error by showing your own work.

The steps given are:

$\frac{2}{3} (6k - 9) + 8k - 2\\=4k - 9 + 8k - 2\\=12k - 11$

No, the simplification is not done correctly. When multiplying

$\frac{2}{3}\times-9$ we should get -6 instead of -9.

Correcting the error:

$\frac{2}{3} (6k - 9) + 8k - 2\\=4k - 6 + 8k - 2\\=12k - 8$

So, the correct answer is 12k-8
