Let's check out the expression


2x+4+6y+7+2+3x

To simplify, you have to add up similar terms. That is, add up everything that has an x, add up everything that has a y, and add up every independent term (no variable), as following:


\begin{gathered} 2x+4+6y+7+2+3x\rightarrow2x+3x+6y+4+7+2 \\ \rightarrow5x+6y+13 \end{gathered}

And there we have the simplified expression.
