Hey!

First, let's write the problem.

3m^2+4m-6m^2
Although it's not necessary, we could group like terms together.

=3m^2-6m^2+4m
Add like terms.
3m^2-6m^2=-3m^2

=-3m^2+4m

This tells us that,

3m^2+4m-6m^2=-3m^2+4m

Thanks!

3m² + 4m - 6m²

Add like terms.

(3m² - 6m²) + 4m

Simplify.

Because both numbers inside of the above parenthesis has m² in it, we can simplify them with one another.

-3m² + 4m

~Hope I helped!~
