The question is not clear the way it appears.
Can you take a screenshot of the question and post a link to it?

I agree with aum. Anyways, are you trying to do something like \[\Large (2x+2)^2 = 2x+6\]?
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
Please post a screenshot of the problem. I have a feeling something is missing.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
oooh ok, it was \[\Large 2x+2^2\], thx that helped
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
\[\Large 2x + 2^2 = 2x + 4\]
since \(\Large 2^2 = 4\), agreed?

well you would write 2^2 as 2 squared. Or I guess you can keep that notation
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
you want it equal to 2x+6, so how can you fix that equation?
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
we have +4, but we want +6
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
what can we do

yes you add two to 4 to get 6
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
so you have to add 2 to 2x+4 to get 2x+6
