Yes. If you control 3 manabarbs, each one will trigger when a player taps a land. Since your opponent is playing a hellrider then, assuming no mana shenanigans, he will take 12 damage (4 from each barbs)

If they tapped lands for mana to cast Hellrider, then yes, your opponent would take 12 damage - 3 damage per land tapped.

I read your question wrong sorry. So yes they would take 4 from each barbs.

Hang on a sec. Don't you guys mean 3 from each barb?
Theres 3 Manabarbs on the field, for each land being tapped there are 3 instances of the effect occuring - 1 damage per instance.
4 mana is required to play Hellrider, that means 4 lands need to be tapped (unless there are other mana producing things going on of course.)
3 (Manabarbs effects) x 4 (Lands tapped) = 12
Sorry, I know I'm being really pedantic about it haha.

To continue with the pedanticalness, they would actually take 4 damage from each Manabarbs because 4 lands are being tapped.
4 damage per Manabarbs x 3 Manabarbs = 12 damage.
lol.
