To simplify the expression ((x - 2)(2x + 4)), you can use the distributive property (also known as the FOIL method for binomials). Multiply each term in the first binomial by each term in the second binomial:

[ x \cdot 2x + x \cdot 4 - 2 \cdot 2x - 2 \cdot 4. ]

This results in (2x^2 + 4x - 4x - 8). The (4x) and (-4x) cancel each other out, leaving you with the simplified expression (2x^2 - 8).
