Explanation:


\text{(x + 1) + (x + 2)}

Remove the unnecessary brackets :


\text{x + 1 + x + 2}

Combine like terms. Like terms are those which have the same base. Only coefficients of like terms can be added or subtracted.


\text{x + x + 1 + 2}


\text{2x + 3}


\red{ \boxed{ \boxed{ \text{Our \: final \: answer : \boxed{ \underline{ \tt{2x + 3}}}}}}}

Hope I helped ! ♡

Have a wonderful day / night ! ツ
