Simplifying
2(u + -1) = 4u + 2 + -2(-4u + -4)

Reorder the terms:
2(-1 + u) = 4u + 2 + -2(-4u + -4)
(-1 * 2 + u * 2) = 4u + 2 + -2(-4u + -4)
(-2 + 2u) = 4u + 2 + -2(-4u + -4)

Reorder the terms:
-2 + 2u = 4u + 2 + -2(-4 + -4u)
-2 + 2u = 4u + 2 + (-4 * -2 + -4u * -2)
-2 + 2u = 4u + 2 + (8 + 8u)

Reorder the terms:
-2 + 2u = 2 + 8 + 4u + 8u

Combine like terms: 2 + 8 = 10
