#(x^2+3x+5)+(x^2+4x+1)#
#color(white)("XXX")=2x^2+7x+6#

Explanation:

Well you can do it like this
#(color(red)(x^2)+color(red)(3x)+color(red)(5))+(color(blue)(x^2)+color(blue)(4x)+color(blue)(1))#

#color(white)("XXX")=(color(red)(x^2)+color(blue)(x^2))+(color(red)(3x)+color(blue)(4x))+(color(red)(5)+color(blue)(1))#

#color(white)("XXX")=2x^2+7x+6#
