Simplify the expression:
7 - 5x - (3 + 5x)
Operate the parentheses. Each term changes its signs because the minus sign represents a -1:
7 - 5x - (3 + 5x) = 7 - 5x - 3 - 5x
Collect like terms:
7 - 5x - (3 + 5x) = 7 - 3 -5x - 5x
Simplify:
7 - 5x - (3 + 5x) = 4 - 10x
Answer: 4 - 10x

Hey there!
No, the graph is not a function because it has two of the same inputs, (7, -6) and (7, -7).
It also can't be a linear function because the graphs are not pointed to form a straight line.
Hope this helps!
Have a great day!
5 + 6 hahahahaha hahhahhahaha
