You should be able to achieve something of the sort by doing this:
1. In the Math Editor, type out "f(x)=x*2" (or \times or \cdot or
whatever).
2. Now, go to the Math Panel and open the Delimiters dialog; set the left
and right delimiters to whatever you need, and hit Ok.
3. Within the delimiters you just inserted, insert a Matrix with however
many rows and columns you want... in your example above, you'd probably want
two columns so you could left-justify your terms, but you could just use one
column if you're not picky. The delimiters will grow to surround the entire
matrix. You can even nest matrices; they look odd in LyX, but the printed
output will still be nice.
Have fun,
