Answer:

6x

Explanation:

To make this question easier, let's first get rid of the "x" since all of the terms share the same variable:

4-5+7

Using the order of operations:

Parenthese

Exponents

Multiplication & Division: Left to right

Addition & Subtract: Left to right

-1+7=6

Then we can add the "x" back on and we get

6x
