Answer: 63x - 14

Step-by-step explanation: For this problem we will use the distributive property to expand the expression.

7(9x - 2) (Use the distributive property to execute the parentheses by multiply the number outside the parentheses by the number inside the parentheses.)

7 x 9x = 63x. And 7 x (-2) = -14.

So now we are left off with an expression that has executed parentheses and is expanded.

63x - 14 is the expanded expression of 7(9x - 2)
