Answer: -14

Explanation:

It is -14 because inside the parentheses, the (x + 2y) it is equal to 7. It is equal to 7 because x = 3 and y = 2. So 2 x 2 equals 4. So inside the parentheses, it is (3 + 4), which is equal to 7. When you multiply a negative and a positive, it becomes a negative. So -2 x 7 = -14

If this helped you let me know. If not, I will improve and make sure my work is correct. Have a nice day!
