How do you simplify the mathematical expression: 4 (x-6) + 3x

First you would distribute the 4 to the x and the - 6. So the equation would then look like this 4x-24+3x. Next you would combine like terms which would be 4x and 3x. So it would now be 7x-24. You can't simplify it anymore.

The simplification is x * 7 - 24.
