Tyler is using the distributive property on the expression 9 -4(5x - 6). Here is his work:
9-4(5x-6)
9+(-4)(5x+-6)
9+-20x+-6
3-20x
Mai thinks Tyler’s answer is incorrect. She says, “If expressions are equivalent then they are equal for any value of the variable. Why don’t you try to substitute the same value for x in all the equations and see where they are not equal?”

Find the step where Tyler made an error.
