Answer:

-2 (6x - y) = -12x + 2y

Explanation:

By using the distributive property, you start by multiplying -2 and 6x which gets you -12x. You then multiply -2 and -y (in other words -y = -1y) so, -2* -y would get you 2 as a negative multiplied by a negative is a positive. So, adding them together would get your final answer: -2 (6x - y) = -12x + 2y
