To simplify the expression \( 4x - 4 - 2x + 3 \), we can combine like terms.
Starting with the expression:
\[ 4x - 4 - 2x + 3 \]
1. Combine the \( x \) terms:
\[ 4x - 2x = 2x \]
2. Combine the constant terms:
\[ -4 + 3 = -1 \]
Putting it all together, we have:
\[ 2x - 1 \]
Therefore, the expression equivalent to \( 4x - 4 - 2x + 3 \) is:
**2x - 1**.
