Answered by GPT 3.5
To simplify the expression (2x + 2) - (3x + 11), we can distribute the negative sign inside the second parenthesis. This results in: 2x + 2 - 3x - 11.

Next, we can combine like terms by combining the x terms together and combining the constant terms together. This results in: (2x - 3x) + (2 - 11).

Simplifying further: -x + (-9).

Therefore, the simplified expression is -x - 9, which corresponds to response 2: -x - 9.
