DETAILED EXPLANATION

Look at -2%2A%28x-3%2Ay%29=highlight_red%28+18+%29.
Moved these terms to the left highlight_green%28+-18+%29
It becomes -2%2A%28x-3%2Ay%29-highlight_green%28+18+%29=0.
Look at -highlight_red%28+2%2A%28x-3%2Ay%29+%29-18=0.
Expanded term -2 by using associative property on %28x-3%2Ay%29
It becomes -highlight_green%28+2%2Ax+%29%2Bhighlight_green%28+2%2A3%2Ay+%29-18=0.
Look at -2%2Ax%2Bhighlight_red%28+2+%29%2Ahighlight_red%28+3+%29%2Ay-18=0.
Multiplied numerator integers
It becomes -2%2Ax%2Bhighlight_green%28+6+%29%2Ay-18=0.
