Answer:

5x - 26

Explanation:

9 - 5(-11x + 7)

  • multiplying both the variables within the parenthesis by 5

= 9 - (-55x + 35)

  • distributing the minus sign

= 9+ 5x - 35

  • combining like terms

= (9 - 35) + 5x

= -26 + 5x

  • rearranging the terms such that the variable with x come first

= 5x - 26
