$x^{2} + 5 x + 4$ $x^2+5x+4$

Explanation:

first multiply $x$ $x$ with $(x + 4)$ $(x+4)$ and then $1$ $1$ with again $(x + 4)$ $(x+4)$
so $x^{2} + 4 x + x + 4$ $x^2+4x+x+4$
$x^{2} + 5 x + 4$ $x^2+5x+4$

Use FOIL to help find:

$(x + 1) (x + 4) = x^{2} + 5 x + 4$ $(x+1)(x+4) = x^2+5x+4$

Explanation:

If you find it helpful, you can use the FOIL mnemonic to help you identify which terms to combine.

$(x+1)(x+4) = overbrace((x*x))^"First" + overbrace((x*4))^"Outside"+overbrace((1*x))^"Inside"+overbrace((1*4))^"Last"$

$=x^2+4x+x+4 = x^2+5x+4$
