(6x + 7)( 3x + 2)=6x(3x + 2)+7( 3x + 2)=6x*3x+6x*2+7*3x+7*2
=18x^2+12x+21x+14=18x^2+33x+14

you have %28Binomial%29%28Binomial%29
In this case, both polynomials have two terms. You need to distribute both terms of one polynomial times both terms of the other polynomial.
%286x+%2B+7%29%28+3x+%2B+2%29
=6x%2A3x+%2B+6x%2A2%2B7%2A3x%2B7%2A2
=18x%5E2+%2B+12x%2B21x%2B14
=18x%5E2+%2B33x%2B14
