Answer:


\text{The expression is }((7x+5))/((-2x+11))

Option D is correct.

Explanation:

Given the statement

“the sum of seven times a number and five, divided by the sum of negative two times the number and eleven”

we have to choose the correct option.

Let a number be x

Therefore the sum of seven times a number and five is


7x+5

Also the sum of negative two times the number and eleven


-2x+11

Now, the statement “the sum of seven times a number and five, divided by the sum of negative two times the number and eleven” can be written as


((7x+5))/((-2x+11))

which is required expression.

Hence, option D is correct.
