Answer:
x^4+4x^3+6x^2+7x+2

Explanation:

To solve this exercise you must apply the proccedure shown below:

- Apply the Distributive property (Remember that when you multiply two powers with the same base, you must add the exponents).


b^m*b^n=b^((m+n))

- Add the like terms.

Therefore, you obtain that the product is:


(x^2+3x+1)(x^2+x+2)=x^4+x^3+2x^2+3x^3+3x^2+6x+x^2+x+2\\=x^4+4x^3+6x^2+7x+2
