Hello, my professor is taking a while to get back to me and I am having trouble figuring out what's expected of me with this problem. I don't understand what expression they mean if all I have is x=9. Seems like it's solved, unless it is asking me to solve 3x=9?

"Let x be a number. Translate the English phrase or sentence into a mathematical expression. Then evaluate the expression for
x=9.

The product of
3
and the number"
 
The product of 3 and the number is "3x".

Evaluated with x = 9 is 3(9) = 27.
 
And, of course, this had nothing at all to do with a "statistical expression".
