\newline

-\sqrt{2}(9 - \sqrt{3})

Distribute $-\sqrt{2}$ : Distribute $-\sqrt{2}$ to both terms inside the parentheses.-\sqrt{$2$}(\(9 - \sqrt{ $3$ }) = -\sqrt{ $2$ }\cdot $9$ - \sqrt{ $2$ }\cdot(-\sqrt{ $3$ })
Multiply $-\sqrt{2}$ by $9$ : Multiply $-\sqrt{2}$ by $9$ . $\newline$ $-\sqrt{2} \times 9$ $\newline$ $= -9\sqrt{2}$
Multiply $-\sqrt{2}$ by $-\sqrt{3}$ : Multiply $-\sqrt{2}$ by $-\sqrt{3}$ . $\newline$ $-\sqrt{2} \times (-\sqrt{3})$ $\newline$ $= \sqrt{2} \times \sqrt{3}$ $\newline$ $= \sqrt{2 \times 3}$ $\newline$ $= \sqrt{6}$
Combine results: Combine the results from Step $2$ and Step $3$ . $\newline$ $-9\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{6}$
