To answer this question you have to keep 3 things in mind:
1. The distributive property of multiplication means you need to distribute (or share) the number outside the parantheses to each of the numbers of variables inside the parantheses.
2. When numbers are separated by a parentheses, it is a shorthand for multiplication.
3. When 2 negative numbers are multiplied or added, the answer is positive. When a positive number is multiplied by a negative number, the answer is negative.
In your question we need to distribute (multiply) the (-4) to each of the numbers inside the parantheses.
-4(6+y+2)
= (-4)(6) + (-4)(y) + (-4)(2)
= (-24) + (-4y) + (-8) we can now combine like terms, so
= (-32) + (-4y)
= -32 - 4y
