$\huge\textsf{Hey there!}$

$\large\textsf{(x - 7) (x - 5)}$

$\large\text{DISTRIBUTE each of the numbers}$

$\large\textsf{x(x) + (-5)x + (-7(x) + (-7)(-5)}$

$\large\textsf{x(x) = \bf x}\bf ^2$

$\large\textsf{x(-5) = \bf -5x}$

$\large\textsf{-7(x) = \bf -7x}$

$\large\textsf{(-7)(-5) = \bf 35}$

$\mathsf{x^2 - 5x -7x + 35}$

$\large\text{COMBINE the LIKE TERMS}$

$\mathsf{x^2 -(5x - 7x) + 35}$

$\mathsf{-5x -7x = \bf -12x}$

$\mathsf{x^2 - 12x + 35}$

$\boxed{\huge\text{Answer: \bf x}^2 \huge\text{\bf - 12x + 35}}\huge\checkmark$

$\large\text{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!}$

General Formulas and Concepts:

Pre-Algebra

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

Equality Properties

Algebra I

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

$\displaystyle \frac{a}{-7} - 7 = 5$

Step 2: Solve for a

Addition Property of Equality: $\displaystyle \frac{a}{-7} - 7 + 7 = 5 + 7$
[Simplify] Add: $\displaystyle \frac{a}{-7}= 12$
Multiplication Property of Equality: $\displaystyle -7 \cdot \frac{a}{-7} = 12 \cdot -7$
[Simplify] Multiply: $\displaystyle a = -84$
