3vt%2Bv%285v-7t%29
First you use distributive property to get rid of the parentheses.
3vt%2B5v%5E2-7tv
Because of the commutative property, -7tv = -7vt
So combine like terms (3vt and -7vt) to equal -4vt
-4vt%2B5v%5E2 is as far as you can simplify the problem, because 3vt%2Bv%285v-7t%29 isn't set equal to a whole number.
