Answer:

7y + 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of the negative sign to the left of the parentheses as being -1. Then apply the distributive property. The effect of a negative sign to the left of parentheses or a 1 to the left of parentheses is that each term inside the parentheses changes sign.

-(-7y - 24) = -1(-7y - 24) = (-1)(-7y) - (-1)(24) = 7y - (-24) = 7y + 24
