    -12p + - 6

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let's simplify step-by-step.

    2 (-2-4p) + 2 (-2p-1)

    Distribute:

    = (2) (-2) + (2) (-4p) + (2) (-2p) + (2) (-1)

    = - 4 + - 8p + - 4p + - 2

    Combine Like Terms:

    = - 4 + - 8p + - 4p + - 2

    = (-8p + - 4p) + (-4 + - 2)

    = - 12p + - 6
