Answer and explanation:

Simplify by combining like terms:

(-3x + 4x) + 2

x + 2

So, x + 2 is the simplified version of this expression, but perhaps you meant make this an equation by adding a y to the other side, since this isn't currently a linear equation.

If the equation were:

y = -3x + (2 + 4x)

then it would be this in standard form:

y = x + 2

-x + y = 2
