Answer 1

`\huge\text{Hey there!}`

`\huge\textbf{Equation:}`

`\mathbf{-7(5v - 10) -7v}`

`\huge\textbf{Solving for your equation:}`

`\mathbf{-7(5v - 10) -7v}`

`\huge\textbf{Distribute -7 within the parentheses:}`

`\mathbf{= -7(5x) -7(-10) - 7v}`

`\mathbf{= -35v + 70 - 7v}`

`\huge\textbf{Combine the like terms:}`

`\mathbf{= (-35v - 7v) + (70)}`

`\mathbf{= -35v - 7v + 70}`

`\mathbf{= -42v + 70}`

`\huge\textbf{Answer:}`

`\huge\boxed{\mathsf{-42v + 7}}\huge\checkmark`
