I'm assuming the brackets signify absolute value??
Break the problem down into 3 distinct regions based on the arguments of the absolute value functions.

.

.
and in between these two regions.

In the region where x<-7/3

The function then becomes

.
.
.
In the region where x>1, then

The function then becomes

.
.
.
Finally in between these two regions.

The function then becomes

Red : G(x)=2x+8
Blue :G(x)= -4x-6
Green :G(x)=-2x-8
The circles show the break points of x=-7/3 and x=1.

Here is the graph trimmed of the extraneous regions.
