\huge\text{Hey there!}

\huge\textbf{What is the distributive formula?}

\mathsf{a(b + c)}

\mathsf{= a(b) + a(c)}

\mathsf{= ab + ac}

\huge\textbf{What is the equation?}

\mathsf{2(-2 - 4)}

\huge\textbf{What are we simplifying?}

\mathsf{2(-2 - 4)}

\mathsf{= 2(-2) + 2(-4)}

\mathsf{= -4 - 8}

\mathsf{= -12}

\huge\textbf{How are you going to translate to}\\\\\huge\textbf{easier terms?}

\mathsf{2(-2 - 4)}

\mathsf{= 2(-6)}

\mathsf{= -12}

\huge\textbf{What is the ANSWER to the question?}

\huge\boxed{\mathsf{-12}}\huge\checkmark

\huge\text{Good luck on your assignment \& enjoy your day!}

Answer:

-12

Step-by-step explanation:

First, solve in parentheses.

2(-2-4)

=

2(-6)

Next, multiply 2 by -6.

Which equals -12.

So therefore using the distributive property shown above, the answer would be -12.
