See a solution process below:

Explanation:

To multiply these two terms you multiply each individual term in the left parenthesis by each individual term in the right parenthesis.

$(x + 2) (2 x^{2} + 3)$ $(color(red)(x) + color(red)(2))(color(blue)(2x^2) + color(blue)(3))$ becomes:

$(x \times 2 x^{2}) + (x \times 3) + (2 \times 2 x^{2}) + (2 \times 3)$ $(color(red)(x) xx color(blue)(2x^2)) + (color(red)(x) xx color(blue)(3)) + (color(red)(2) xx color(blue)(2x^2)) + (color(red)(2) xx color(blue)(3))$

$2 x^{3} + 3 x + 4 x^{2} + 6$ $2x^3 + 3x + 4x^2 + 6$

We can write this in standard form as:

$2 x^{3} + 4 x^{2} + 3 x + 6$ $2x^3 + 4x^2 + 3x + 6$
