To simplify the expression 3(3x-4)-2(2x-1), we can distribute the terms inside each bracket:
3(3x-4) = 3(3x) - 3(4) = 9x - 12
-2(2x-1) = -2(2x) + (-2)(-1) = -4x + 2
Now we can simplify the expression by combining like terms:
9x - 12 - 4x + 2
Combining like terms, we have:
(9x - 4x) + (-12 + 2)
Which simplifies to:
5x - 10
