In each quantity (the area where the parenthesis are), you must distribute the outside number to each term on the inside. -6 multiplied by x is -6x. -6 multiplied by 3 is -18 (always remember that if one factor is negative, then your product is negative. If both factors are negatives, then your product is positive). -(1/4) multiplied by 4x is -1x or -x. -(1/4) multiplied by -8 is 2. Add all your values together. The values with x's may only multiply to other values with x's.
-6x-1x-18+2
Combine the x values(add)
-7x-18+2
Combine regular numbers(add)
-7x-16
This is your final answer.
