What is another way to write the expression 2(x + 1) (x + 2)

To rewrite the expression \( 2(x + 1)(x + 2) \), we first expand the product inside the parentheses and then distribute.

1. Start with the inner expression:
\[
(x + 1)(x + 2) = x^2 + 2x + x + 2 = x^2 + 3x + 2
\]

2. Now multiply by 2:
\[
2(x^2 + 3x + 2) = 2x^2 + 6x + 4
\]

Thus, the expression \( 2(x + 1)(x + 2) \) simplifies to:

\[
\boxed{2x^2 + 6x + 4}
\]
