To simplify the given expression, start by distributing the -6 to the terms inside the parentheses:

3v + 9 - 14 - 6(-5v - 4)

Next, multiply -6 by each term inside the parentheses:
3v + 9 - 14 + 30v + 24

Combine the like terms:
(3v + 30v) + (9 - 14 + 24)
33v + 19

Apologies for the mistake. Let's redo the simplification.

To simplify the expression 3v + 9 - 14 - 6(-5v - 4), we need to distribute the -6 to the terms inside the parentheses.

-6 multiplied by -5v gives 30v, and -6 multiplied by -4 gives +24.

So, the expression becomes:
3v + 9 - 14 - 30v - 24

Now, let's combine the like terms:
(3v - 30v) + (9 - 14 - 24)
-27v - 29

Let's check the options to find the correct simplified form of the expression 3v + 9 - 14 - 6(-5v - 4).

Option 1: 36v + 28
Option 2: 106v + 98
Option 3: -24v - 20
Option 4: -6v - 13

We can simplify the given expression as follows:

3v + 9 - 14 - 6(-5v - 4)

= 3v + 9 - 14 + 30v + 24 [Distributing -6 to -5v and -4]

= (3v + 30v) + (9 - 14 + 24) [Combining like terms]

= 33v + 19

So, the simplified form of the expression 3v + 9 - 14 - 6(-5v - 4) is 33v + 19.

Therefore, none of the given options - 36v + 28, 106v + 98, -24v - 20, -6v - 13 - matches the simplified form.
