Simplifying
3(2z + -6) + -2(6z + 4) = 5(z + 8)

Reorder the terms:
3(-6 + 2z) + -2(6z + 4) = 5(z + 8)
(-6 * 3 + 2z * 3) + -2(6z + 4) = 5(z + 8)
(-18 + 6z) + -2(6z + 4) = 5(z + 8)

Reorder the terms:
-18 + 6z + -2(4 + 6z) = 5(z + 8)
-18 + 6z + (4 * -2 + 6z * -2) = 5(z + 8)
-18 + 6z + (-8 + -12z) = 5(z + 8)
