Answer:

[tex] \boxed{ \bold{ \sf{ \huge{ \boxed{6}}}}} [/tex]

Option B is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, m = -2 and n = -3

Given expression : 3m - 4n

If the value of variables of algebraic expressions are given, the value of the term it expression can easily obtained by replacing the variables with numbers.

Let's solve:

[tex] \sf{3m - 4n}[/tex]

Plug the values of m and n

[tex] \sf{ = 3 \times ( - 2) - 4 \times ( - 3)}[/tex]

Multiply

[tex] \sf{ = - 6 - ( - 12)}[/tex]

When there is a ( - ) in front of a parentheses, change the sign

[tex] \sf{ = - 6 + 12}[/tex]

Calculate

[tex] \sf{ = 6}[/tex]

Hope I helped!

Best regards!!
