Final answer:

The expression given (-7° - 47 - 4) seems to have a typo and is missing an operation symbol, which is necessary to provide a correct evaluation. Assuming it's a simple addition or subtraction without the presence of a variable x, the result would be -58, which is not among the provided options.

Step-by-step explanation:

You are asked to evaluate the expression -7° - 47 - 4 when x = -3. To clarify the expression, it appears to be missing an operation between the -7° and the number 47. Assuming this is a typo and that the expression should include a multiplication or addition symbol, we would need that information to provide a correct answer. Without that information, we cannot accurately determine the value of the expression.

However, if the expression is correct and should be interpreted literally as -7 - 47 - 4, then we simply add and subtract the numbers as they are since there is no variable x involved in the calculation. The result would be -7 - 47 - 4 = -58, which is not one of the provided options.
