Answer:

- 62

Explanation:

Calculate the sums within the brackets first and then multiplication, as stated by the BOMDAS rule.

B = Brackets

O = ?

M = Multiplication

D = Division

A = Addition

S = Substitution

(- 6 + 4) = -2

(5 + 9) = 14

- 2 × 14 = -28

- 28 - 3 = - 31

2 × - 31 = - 62

Disclaimer: I am not sure if one of the x's is used as a variable or not
