Steps:
1) Distribute
We must distribute the expression above by multiplying -12 by the coefficients and then adding the variables.
So first, multiple -12 by 32 and add the variable 'x' when getting the product:
-12(-384x - 10y)
Now that we have one part, let's solve the other part.
We now must multiple -12 by -10, which gets us 120, now we must plug in:
(-384x - 120y)
(Remove parenthesis)
⇒ -384x - 120y
