submit answer

Explanation:

Step1: Apply the distributive property (FOIL method)

Multiply the First terms: \(3x \times 2x = 6x^2\)
Multiply the Outer terms: \(3x \times 4 = 12x\)
Multiply the Inner terms: \(4 \times 2x = 8x\)
Multiply the Last terms: \(4 \times 4 = 16\)

Step2: Combine like terms

Combine the \(x\)-terms: \(12x + 8x = 20x\)
Now, combine all the terms: \(6x^2 + 20x + 16\)

Answer:

\(6x^2 + 20x + 16\)
