Answer:

Model the expression as 3 groups of x+2.

There are 3 x-tiles.

There are 6 +1 tiles.

The equivalent expression is 3x+6

Explanation:

see image. This program is trying to help you learn algebra (here it looks like distributive property) by using a physical model. The bars are x's and the +1's are numbers. The little squares are 1 each (positive or negative, but you only need the positives for this question)

see image.

The lesson is:

3(x+2) = 3x + 6
