(x+6)(x+2)
Simplifying
(x + 6)(x + 2)

Reorder the terms:
(6 + x)(x + 2)

Reorder the terms:
(6 + x)(2 + x)

Multiply (6 + x) * (2 + x)
(6(2 + x) + x(2 + x))
((2 * 6 + x * 6) + x(2 + x))
((12 + 6x) + x(2 + x))
(12 + 6x + (2 * x + x * x))
(12 + 6x + (2x + x2))

Combine like terms: 6x + 2x = 8x
(12 + 8x + x2)
