Final answer:

To evaluate f(x) x g(x), distribute the multiplication by multiplying each term in f(x) by g(x) separately and combine like terms.

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate f(x) x g(x) using the distributive property, we can distribute the multiplication by multiplying each term in f(x) by g(x) separately. This can be done by multiplying the coefficients and adding the exponents if the variables are the same. For example, if f(x) = 2x and g(x) = 3x^2, then f(x) x g(x) = (2x) x (3x^2) = 6x^(1+2) = 6x^3.
