Answer 2

Answer:

B. 4x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem basically looks like this:

(x + 4) + (3x + 2)

However, you can just get rid of the parenthesis:

x + 4 + 3x + 2

Now add like terms (such as 3x and x, or 4 and 2)

x + 3x = 4x

4 + 2 = 6

This gives you the final answer as:

4x + 6
