We will see that the correct option is B:

"It is not true because 3x3 does not equal 3."

Is the equation true?

We have the equation:

6x + 3 = 3*(2x + 3)

Now, if we distribute the right side, we will get:

6x + 3 = 3*2x + 3*3

6*x + 3 = 6*x + 9

Subtracting 6x in both sides we get:

3 = 9

This is false, so the equation is false.

The problem is that the 3*3 on the right side is not equal to the constant term, 3, in the left side.

So the correct option is B.
