in the first one you have 3x(x+2) you would distribute the 3x to both the x and the 2 (3x*x)+(3x*2) (the *is multiply) you would get 3x^2+6x, you would do the same thing for each, remember the order of opperations though

PEMDAS is an acronym that helps me sometimes.
P – Parenthysis
E – Exponent
M – Multiply
D – Division
A – Addition
S – Subtraction
For your first problem, multiply 3x by (x + 2) Then multiply 5x by (2x+6) and then add your two results
For the second problem, multiply (x+3) by 2 and then multiply (x+2) by 4. Then start with 3 minus your answer for 2(x=3) plus your answer for 4(x=2) and add x
Good luck.
