Let's look at the key words of the sentence and convert into algebraic symbols:

times = multiplication

the sum = addition

and = addition

Now, let's convert the rest:

4 times = 4 *

2 times x = 2x

And 6 = + 6

Put everything together, and you will have your algebraic expression:

4 * (2x + 6) or 4(2x + 6)
