(x + 4)(x + 2) = ______________ .

  1. x2 + 6x + 6
  2. x2 + 8x + 8
  3. x2 + 8x + 6
  4. x2 + 6x + 8

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

Multiply the first variable in the first set of parentheses with the first variable in the second set of parentheses (x× x = x2).
Next, multiply the first variable in the first set of parentheses with the second number in the second set of parentheses (x × 2 = 2x). So far, the results are x2 + 2x.
Now, multiply the second number in the first set of parentheses to the first variable in the second set of parentheses (4 × x = 4x).
Next, multiply the second variable in the first set of parentheses to the second number in the second set of parentheses (4 × 2 = 8).
The solution is x2+ 2x + 4x + 8.
Combining the like terms results in x2+ 6x + 8.
