Answer: The answer is −4x−9.8

Step-by-step explanation:

−7x−9−−4.2+3x−5

The opposite of −4.2 is 4.2.

−7x−9+4.2+3x−5

Add −9 and 4.2 to get −4.8.

−7x−4.8+3x−5

Combine −7x and 3x to get −4x.

−4x−4.8−5

Subtract 5 from −4.8 to get −9.8.

−4x−9.8

Ps: I hope this is correct, hope it helps also have a great day.
