Hope this helps!

Answer:

Option b)  If Leo has d dollars, then Dale has 2d + 3 dollars.  

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Let Leo has d dollars.

It is given Dale has three dollars more than twice the money Leo has.

Thus, according to the question Dale's money can be expressed with the help of an equation:

[tex]\text{Dale's money} = 3 + 2\times \text{Leo's money}\\\text{Dale's money} = 3 + (2\times d) = 3 + 2d[/tex]

Thus, option b) is the correct representation of Dale's money.
