6 + 4(3x -2)=
6 + 12x - 8 = (I used the distributive law to simplify 4(3x-2)
-2 + 12x =    ( I combined like terms   6+ -8)
12x -2 =    I rewrote the equation putting the variable first and using the                                       commutative  law:  -2 +12x = 12 x + -2 and that is the same as 
                          12x -2
