Simplifying
3(2y + -1) + -1y = 2(y + 2) + -1(y + -4)

Reorder the terms:
3(-1 + 2y) + -1y = 2(y + 2) + -1(y + -4)
(-1 * 3 + 2y * 3) + -1y = 2(y + 2) + -1(y + -4)
(-3 + 6y) + -1y = 2(y + 2) + -1(y + -4)

Combine like terms: 6y + -1y = 5y
-3 + 5y = 2(y + 2) + -1(y + -4)

Reorder the terms:
-3 + 5y = 2(2 + y) + -1(y + -4)
-3 + 5y = (2 * 2 + y * 2) + -1(y + -4)
-3 + 5y = (4 + 2y) + -1(y + -4)

Reorder the terms:
-3 + 5y = 4 + 2y + -1(-4 + y)
-3 + 5y = 4 + 2y + (-4 * -1 + y * -1)
-3 + 5y = 4 + 2y + (4 + -1y)

Reorder the terms:
-3 + 5y = 4 + 4 + 2y + -1y

Combine like terms: 4 + 4 = 8
-3 + 5y = 8 + 2y + -1y
