You mean "simplify the expression", because that's not an equation, and there's nothing to answer.
Use the distributive rule on the first term:
2x + 6y - 4x
then combine like terms (namely the 2x and -4x):
-2x + 6y

=2x+6y-4x
=2x-4x+6
=-2x+6
(use F.O.I.L/distribution to open up the bracket)

2x+6y-4x then 6y-2x and it will end up looking like this -2x+6y

You don't mean "answer the equation", you want to say "simplify this expression".
