Answer

$\frac{3x + 2}{x - 4}$

Work Step by Step

Note: Multiplying a fraction by one or an equivalent to one does not change the fraction. To subtract two fractions, there must be a common denominator: $\frac{3x}{x - 4} - \frac{2 (-1)}{(4 - x)(-1)}$ = $\frac{3x}{x - 4} + \frac{2}{x - 4}$ = $\frac{3x + 2}{x - 4}$
