Answer:

2x+6

Explanation:

To simplify an expression such as this you must add like terms. Like terms are terms that have the same variable and power. In this expression 4x, x, -3x are like terms and -2 and 8 are also like terms. To add like terms simply add the coefficients and remember adding a negative is the same as subtracting. So, add the previously listed terms 4x + x + (-3x) = 2x, then -2+8= 6. This means the simplified expression is 2x+6.
