Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the variable

Let the number Max is thinking of be represented by the variable \( x \).

Step 2: Add 8 to the variable

Max adds 8 to his number, so the expression becomes \( x + 8 \).

Step 3: Double the sum

Max then doubles the sum, so the final expression is \( 2(x + 8) \).

Final Answer

The expression to represent Max's number is \( 2(x + 8) \).
