k so I know that u would have to multiply the 8 and 2x and you will get 16 then u add the 3 which would make it 19x but where do u go from there after u get 19x does it just stay or do u have to do more
well if you just need to simplify it would be [tex]8 \times 2x + 3 = 16x + 3[/tex] but if it's distributive property it would be [tex]8(2x + 3) = 16x + 24[/tex]
