To simplify the given expression, we can combine like terms.
(x² + x + 1) + (x² - x + 1)
Simplifying within each set of parentheses first, we have: x² + x + 1 + x² - x + 1
Combining like terms, we can add the coefficients of similar terms: (1x² + 1x²) + (1x - 1x) + (1 + 1)
Simplifying further, we get: 2x² + 0x + 2
And since 0x is equal to 0, we can simplify it to: 2x² + 2
So, the simplified form of (x² + x + 1) + (x² - x + 1) is 2x² + 2.
