(Each line would be a different step)
1. The expression is -3(4x-5y+6) +8x-9
2. First use distributive property -12x + 15y - 18 + 8x - 9
3. Combine like terms (in this case, we can only add the x's and the constant terms -12x + 8x + 15y -18 -9 which is -4x + 15y -27
The answer to your question would be -4x + 15y - 27
