    3-2 (2x+2) - (4x+2)

    Pretend that there is a - 1 in front of the second bracket

    3-2 (2x+2) - 1 (4x+2)

    Multiply the first bracket by 2

    Multiply the second bracket by - 1

    (-2) (2x) (-2) (2) = -4x-4

    (-1) (4x) (-1) (2) = - 4x-2

    3-4x-4-4x-2

    -4x-4x+3-4-2

    Do 3-4-2 first

    3-4-2

    -1-2

    =-3

    -4x-4x-3

    -8x-3

    Answer: - 8x-3
