Given expressions represents the product of 3 less than twice x and 2 more than the quantity 3 times x .

Product indicates symbol is  ( * )

Less than indicates symbol is  ( - )

More than indicates symbol is  ( + )

Times indicates symbol is  ( * )

So the first black t"he product of 3 less than twice x" is 2x - 3.

the second  black " 2 more than the quantity 3 times x" is 3x + 2.

So,the product of 3 less than twice x and 2 more than the quantity 3 times x are 2x - 3 and 3x + 2.

Given expressions are 2x - 3 and 3x + 2.
