Answer:

(3x+4x) + (5-30)

Explanation:

For this problem which is all addition and subtraction it is simply having you combine like terms or rather terms with same variables (3x and 4x). You just need to be careful with the signs when you rewrite the problem so when you solve you get the correct answer. Example if you were to solve this one you would combine your numbers with variable of x and then the numbers without the variable:

(3x+4x) +(5-30)

7x + -25 or 7x-25
