Answer:

The answer is 3x+6.

Explanation:

This is multiplication, so you need to multiply 3 by x.

3*x=3x

What you do to one side you do to the other.

Multiply 3 by 2.

3*2=6.

Hello.

This is the process of simplifying the following equation using the distributive property.

3(x+2) = 3(x) + 3(2)

4 + 6 (because when x is unknown, it equals 1)
