\text{Hey there!}


\text{The answer is: (3g + 2)(g + 2)}


\text{To make sure it comes back to the original problem}\bf{(3g^2+8g+4)}
\text{You would have to distribute the answer}


\text{3g(g)=}3g^2\\ \text{3g(2)=6g}\\ \text{2(g)=2g}\\ \text{2(2)=4}


\text{After distributing combine your like terms:}


\text{In this particular answer we have: 1 term with TWO LIKE TERMS}


\text{6g+2g=8g(That's how we got the 8g in the original equation)}


\text{The}\bf{\ 3g^2}\text{ stays the same because there's nothing to go with it}


\text{The 4 also stays the same because nothing goes with it as well}


\boxed{\boxed{\text{Answer:(3x + 2 (x + 2)})}}\checkmark


\text{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!}
