Answer

$2+\sqrt[3]{20}$

Work Step by Step

Using $a(b+c)=ab+ac$, or the Distributive Property, and the properties of radicals, the given expression, $ \sqrt[3]{2}(\sqrt[3]{4}+\sqrt[3]{10}) ,$ simplifies to \begin{array}{l}\require{cancel} \sqrt[3]{2}(\sqrt[3]{4})+\sqrt[3]{2}(\sqrt[3]{10}) \\\\= \sqrt[3]{8}+\sqrt[3]{20} \\\\= \sqrt[3]{(2)^3}+\sqrt[3]{20} \\\\= 2+\sqrt[3]{20} .\end{array}
