See entire process described below:

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

$(color(red)(9x) + color(red)(6))(color(blue)(4x) + color(blue)(3))$ becomes:

$(color(red)(9x) xx color(blue)(4x)) + (color(red)(9x) xx color(blue)(3)) + (color(red)(6) xx color(blue)(4x)) + (color(red)(6) xx color(blue)(3))$

$36x^2 + 27x + 24x + 18$

We can now combine like terms:

$36x^2 + (27 + 24)x + 18$

$36x^2 + 51x + 18$

How do you find the product of (9x + 6) (4x + 3) (9x + 6) (4x + 3) ?
