Answer:
5-3x
Step-by-step explanation:
To expand this, we start with the distribution of -3 into the parentheses containing x+2
This leaves us with
11-3x-6
From here, simplifying involves combining like terms. The only like terms we have are the constant values 11 and -6
We combine them by subtracting 11-6 to get 5.
This leaves us with our answer,
11-6-3x
<u>5-3x</u>
An alternate way of writing this would be
<u>-3x+5</u>
But this would only be required if we were asked to express the answer in decreasing degree, so don't worry about that for now
