One number is 3 more than 2 times the other, and their sum is 27. Find the numbers.
If x represents the smaller number, then the larger number is
3x + 2
2x + 3
2(x + 3)
Please look at the answer choices Thanks! And please hurry

Respuesta :

2(x+3) is the answer
The word after 2 is times and that means multiply and having the 2 outside the parenthesis is the only indication of multiplication
X represents One and directly after that is 3 more.More, in this case, means addition.
With both of those reasons 2(x+3) is the correct answer
