Subtract (-4x+7) from the sum of (5x-3) and (6x-2)

Step 1. Sum of (5x-3) and (6x-2) means

(5x-3)+(6x-2)=5x+6x-3-2=11x-5

Step 2 Subtract (-4x+7) from equation in Step 1.

11x-5-(-4x+7)=11x-5+4x-7= 11x+4x-5-7=15x-12

Step 3. ANSWER: (5x-3)+(6x-2)-(-4x+7)=15x-12

I hope the above steps were helpful.
