Step 1. The expression that we have is:
[tex]\left(-6\right)\left(-2\right)+\left(+8\right)\left(-4\right)[/tex]And we need to solve the operations to find the answer.
Step 2. We need to make the multiplications first:
(-6)(-2)=12
and
(+8)(-4)=-32
here we have applied the law of signs:
[tex]\begin{gathered} (-)(-)=+ \\ (+)(-)=- \end{gathered}[/tex]The solution to the multiplications is shown here:
The expression now is:
[tex]12+(-32)[/tex]Step 3. Now we solve the expression considering that
(+)(-) is -
[tex]12-32[/tex]The result of the subtraction is:
[tex]-20[/tex]Answer:
[tex]-20[/tex]
