Answer:

4x - 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Set the expression.

  9x - 7

- (5x + 3)

-------------

First, distribute -1 to all terms within the parenthesis:

-(5x + 3) = -5x - 3

Simplify. Combine like terms.

(9x - 7) + (-5x - 3) = 9x - 5x + (-7) - 3

(9x - 5x) + (-7 - 3)

4x - 11

4x - 11 is your answer.
