Answer 2

Answer:

3x+12

Step-by-step explanation:

Follow the PEMDAS/GEMDAS order. First, distribute the 2 to the numbers in the parenthesis:

2(x+6)-4+x

      ↓

2x+16-4+x

Then, subtract the numbers without a variable (the numbers without x):

2x+16-4+x

      ↓

 2x+12+x

Then, add the variables together (the numbers with x):

2x+12+x

     ↓

 3x+12

Hope this is the answer you need.
