Answer:

2x +3

Explanation:

the product of two and a number means the total of 2 and a number we don't know. We know this because product means multiply.

Then it says 3 more. Using PEMDAS we know that multiplication comes BEFORE addition. So we multiply first then add the 3. So the formula would be

2x + 3

Answer:

2x+3

Explanation:

Three more than something means adding, so we can just add 3.

Then, having a product of something means the two numbers were multiplied together, so we can write it as 2x.

Our final equation is 2x+3

Hope this helps!
