    Answer:

    -16x – 28

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We have 7 – 7 * (5 + x) – 9x.

    First, we take care of the parentheses, which means we need to expand it out. Remember that in expanding out parentheses, we multiply the outside number (-7 in this case) by each of the inside terms (5 and x) and add those together:

    -7 * (5 + x) = -7 * 5 + -7 * x = -35 – 7x

    Put this back into the original equation:

    7 + -35 – 7x – 9x = -16x – 28

    Thus, our simplification is -16x – 28.
