Explanation:
First, expand both the terms in parenthesis by multiplying each term within the parenthesis by the term outside the parenthesis:
a(8a2+2a+4)+3(6a24)
(a×8a2)+(a×2a)+(a×4)+(3×6a2)(3×4)
8a3+2a2+4a+18a212
Next, group like terms:
8a3+2a2+18a2+4a12
Now, combine like terms:
8a3+(2+18)a2+4a12
8a3+20a2+4a12
