It would be 8(x+3) since the word total is referring to the addition of the variable x and the number three. Times can be seen as a term for multiplication, so the eight would be multiplying against the sum. And if you´re trying to do it according to algebra, you need to put parentheses so that it can perform the act of distribution.
