Step 1
Apply distributive property,
(3x+1)(x2)=3x(x2)+1(x2)
Apply distributive property,
(3x+1)(x2)=3xx+3x(2)+1x+1(2)
Multiply the terms using the properties of exponents,
(3x+1)(x2)=3x26x+x2
Group and combine the like terms,
(3x+1)(x2)=3x25x2
Final Statement:
The arithmetic operation "multiplication" is performed in the polynomials 3x+1 and x2
