The given equation is expressed as

y + 2 = - 4(x + 4)

We would open the bracket by multiplying the terms inside the bracket by the term outside the bracket. It becomes

y + 2 = - 4x - 16

Rewriting it in the form, Ax + By = C, it becomes

- 4x - y = 2 + 16

- 4x - y = 18

A = - 4

B = - 1

C = 18
