Answer:

18x-16

Explanation:

expression: (11x-8)+7(x-1)

ok so what you want to do is combine like terms

but first you are going to distribute

(11x-8)+(7x-8) you distribute the 7

they you can subtract 8 from -8 and that will give you -16

you will then add 11x and 7x which will get you 18x

the final expression will be 18x-16
