Answer:

Step 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving

  • (7 - 10) - 2(6y - 5) + 17 [Step 1]
  • 3 - 12y + 10 + 18 [Step 2]
  • 3 - 12y + 28 [Step 3]
  • -12y + 31 [Step 4]

The error has occurred in Step 2.

The distribution of -2 to 6y and -5 gives -12y and 10 respectively.

Instead, the distribution has not happened between -2 and -5.
