-(-7y + 12) = 7y - 12
u are distributing the -sign through the parenthesis...so u take the number outside of the parenthesis (and if it just a sign, the number is 1)...and u multiply it by everything in the parenthesis.
-1(-7y + 12) = -1 * -7y + (-1) * 12 = 7y + (-12) = 7y - 12

Answer:
All real numbers are solutions.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
7x− 3 = − 3 + 7x
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
7x − 3 = −3 + 7x
7x + −3 = −3 + 7x
7x − 3 = 7x − 3
Step 2: Subtract 7x from both sides.
7x− 3 −7x = 7x −3 −7x
−3 = −3
Step 3: Add 3 to both sides.
−3 + 3 = −3 + 3
0 = 0
