I'll solve each problem using the distributive property. Let me work through them carefully.

The distributive property states: a(b + c) = ab + ac

Let me solve each one step by step:

1) −(−3 − 6x) = 3 + 6x

2) −13(20 − 8x) = −260 + 104x

3) −8(11 + 6x) = −88 − 48x

4) −(7 − 4x) = −7 + 4x

5) −(20 − 5x) = −20 + 5x

6) 12(12 + 2x) = 144 + 24x

7) −3(4 − 6x) = −12 + 18x

8) −6(3 − 8x) = −18 + 48x

9) 20(20 + 2x) = 400 + 40x

10) −(3 − 2x) = −3 + 2x

11) −(−21 − 6x) = 21 + 6x

12) −3(9 − 7x) = −27 + 21x

13) −(21 − 6x) = −21 + 6x

14) −3(7 + 7x) = −21 − 21x

15) −16(17 + 4x) = −272 − 64x

16) −(6 − 7x) = −6 + 7x

17) 20(21 + 3x) = 420 + 60x

18) −4(5 − 2x) = −20 + 8x

19) −20(21 + 4x) = −420 − 80x

20) −(−17 − 3x) = 17 + 3x

21) −7(2 − 8x) = −14 + 56x

22) −14(15 + 4x) = −210 − 56x

23) −10(11 − 2x) = −110 + 20x

24) −(−5 − 3x) = 5 + 3x

25) −12(16 − 5x) = −192 + 60x

26) 2(5 + 5x) = 10 + 10x

27) −(−2 − 2x) = 2 + 2x

28) 2(2 + 2x) = 4 + 4x

29) −(−19 − 2x) = 19 + 2x

30) 12(18 + 8x) = 216 + 96x

Final Answer:
1) 3 + 6x
2) −260 + 104x
3) −88 − 48x
4) −7 + 4x
5) −20 + 5x
6) 144 + 24x
7) −12 + 18x
8) −18 + 48x
9) 400 + 40x
10) −3 + 2x
11) 21 + 6x
12) −27 + 21x
13) −21 + 6x
14) −21 − 21x
15) −272 − 64x
16) −6 + 7x
17) 420 + 60x
18) −20 + 8x
19) −420 − 80x
20) 17 + 3x
21) −14 + 56x
22) −210 − 56x
23) −110 + 20x
24) 5 + 3x
25) −192 + 60x
26) 10 + 10x
27) 2 + 2x
28) 4 + 4x
29) 19 + 2x
30) 216 + 96x
