To simplify the expression \((4x + 4) - (-2x + 4)\), follow these steps:
1. Distribute the negative sign:
\[
(4x + 4) + (2x - 4)
\]
2. Combine like terms:
- For \(x\) terms: \(4x + 2x = 6x\)
- For constant terms: \(4 - 4 = 0\)
Putting it all together, we get:
\[
6x + 0 = 6x
\]
So, the simplified expression is:
\[
\boxed{6x}
\]
