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

Reorder the terms:
2(-4 + x) + -4(x + -2) = x + 3 + -1(x + -1)
(-4 * 2 + x * 2) + -4(x + -2) = x + 3 + -1(x + -1)
(-8 + 2x) + -4(x + -2) = x + 3 + -1(x + -1)

Reorder the terms:
-8 + 2x + -4(-2 + x) = x + 3 + -1(x + -1)
-8 + 2x + (-2 * -4 + x * -4) = x + 3 + -1(x + -1)
-8 + 2x + (8 + -4x) = x + 3 + -1(x + -1)

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

Reorder the terms:
-2x = x + 3 + -1(-1 + x)
-2x = x + 3 + (-1 * -1 + x * -1)
-2x = x + 3 + (1 + -1x)
