Answer 1

$\huge \boxed{\mathbb{QUESTION} \downarrow}$

• Simplify ⇨ 19m + 14 - 3 (3m + 7)

$\large \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer \: with \: Explanation} \downarrow}$

$\sf \: 19 m - 14 - 3 ( 3 m + 7 )$

Use the distributive property to multiply -3 by 3m+7.

$\sf \: 19m-14-9m-21$

Combine 19m and -9m to get 10m.

$\sf \: 10m-14-21$

Subtract 21 from -14 to get -35.

$\boxed{\boxed{\bf \: 10m-35 }}$
