x + 4 + 3x + 2

Before we jump into this confusing tangle of higher algebra and arithmetic,

let's put it aside for a minute, and work out a simpler problem, just to get

warmed up.

Try this one first:

1 cow + 4 + 3 cows + 2.

Add up the cows: 1 cow + 3 cows = 4 cows

Add up the numbers: 4 + 2 = 6

Put them back together: 4 cows + 6.

Now that we're warmed up, we can go back to the original problem in the question:

1x + 4 + 3x + 2

Add up the 'x's :1x + 3x = 4x

Add up the numbers: 4 + 2 = 6

Put them back together: 4x + 6
