Answer:


\huge\boxed{\sf{2x+6}}

Explanation:

Hello.

The Distributive Property states that

a(b+c)=ab+ac (we take a term a and multiply it times b and c)

Now that we know what the property states, let's simplify the given expression:

2(x+3)

2 times x plus 2 times 3

2x plus 6

2x+6

I hope it helps & have an outstanding day.
