For this question to make sense, I will assume you meant:
4x/(x^2-18x+72) + 4/(x-6)
the first denominator factors to (x-6)(x-12), so it becomes your lowest common denominator
then
4x/(x^2-18x+72) + 4/(x-6)
= 4x/[(x-6)(x-12)] + 4/(x-6)
=[4x(x-6) + 4] / [(x-6)(x-12)]
= [4x^2 - 24x + 4} / [(x-6)(x-12)]
(really not much of a "simplification" problem), the original looks even simpler.
add, express answer in simplest form
4x/x^2-18x+72 + 4/x-6

subtract 4x/x-8-32/x-8
-2x > x-12
