$- 33 w - 18$ $-33w-18$

Explanation:

Multiply both parenthesis by $3$ $3$ , by multiplying each component of the parenthesis by $3$ $3$ :

$3 (- 3 w - 8) = 3 \cdot (- 3 w) + 3 \cdot (- 8) = - 9 w - 24$ $3(-3w-8) = 3*(-3w) + 3*(-8) = -9w-24$

$3 (- 8 w + 2) = 3 \cdot (- 8 w) + 3 \cdot 2 = - 24 w + 6$ $3(-8w+2) = 3*(-8w) + 3*2 = -24w+6$

And then sum the two results:

$(- 9 w - 24) + (- 24 w + 6) =$ $(-9w-24)+(-24w+6) =$

$= - 9 w - 24 - 24 w + 6 = - 33 w - 18$ $=-9w-24-24w+6 = -33w-18$

Answer = $- 33 w - 18$ $-33w-18$

Explanation:

Simplify by opening the bracket first for each term.

$3 (- 3 w - 8) + 3 (- 8 w + 2)$ $3(-3w-8) + 3(-8w+2)$
$(3 \times (- 3 w)) - (3 \times 8) + (3 \times (- 8 w)) + (3 \times 2)$ $(3xx(-3w)) - (3xx8) + (3xx(-8w)) +(3xx2)$
$(- 9 w - 24) + (- 24 w + 6)$ $(-9w-24)+(-24w+6)$
$- 9 w - 24 - 24 w + 6$ $-9w-24-24w+6$
$- 33 w - 18$ $-33w-18$
