Answer

$x^3+7x^2+14x+8$.

Work Step by Step

The given expression is $=(x+4)(x^2+3x+2)$ Distribute $(x^2+3x+2)$ to each term of $(x+4)$. $=x(x^2+3x+2)+4(x^2+3x+2)$ Use distributive property. $=x(x^2)+x(3x)+x(2)+4(x^2)+4(3x)+4(2)$ Multiply. $=x^3+3x^2+2x+4x^2+12x+8$ Combine like terms. $=x^3+7x^2+14x+8$ Hence, the product is $x^3+7x^2+14x+8$.
