If we apply the distributive law, we can write our expression as

[tex]-2(1.5h+5)-4(-0.5+3h)=-2\cdot1.5h-2\cdot5-4\cdot(-0.5)-4\cdot3h[/tex]

since -2*1.5=-3, -2*5=-10, -4*(-0.5)=2 and -4*3=-12, we have

[tex]-2(1.5h+5)-4(-0.5+3h)=-3h-10+2-12h[/tex]

the, by comparing this result with the options, the answer is option A
