No.
You correctly subtracted 9n from 17n. Do you see what you did wrong?
The expression 17n + 11 represents the perimeter (in feet) of the triangle. Two sides are measured at 5n + 6 and 4n + 5.
Write an expression that represents the measure of the third side.
Would 8n + 22 be correct?

is 17n+11 - (5n+6) - (4n+5) right?
Yes, so far. Now simplify that by combining like terms.
(17n + 5n + 4n) + (11 + 6 + 5) = 26n + 22?
No. Your question asks for the measurement of the third side. Obviously it's not longer than the perimeter.
