First, use the distributive property to simplify the expression inside the parentheses:
5(7x - 2) - 14x + 4
= 35x - 10 - 14x + 4
Next, combine like terms:
= (35x - 14x) + (-10 + 4)
= 21x - 6
So the simplified expression is 21x - 6.

First, use the distributive property to simplify the expression inside the second set of parentheses:
9(2d + 6) - 11
= 18d + 54 - 11
Next, combine like terms:
= 18d + 43
Finally, combine all the terms in the expression:
17d - 33 + (18d + 43)
= 17d + 18d - 33 + 43
= 35d + 10
So the simplified expression is 35d + 10.
9(2d + 6) - 11
= 18d + 54 - 11
Next, combine like terms:
= 18d + 43
Finally, combine all the terms in the expression:
17d - 33 + (18d + 43)
= 17d + 18d - 33 + 43
= 35d + 10
So the simplified expression is 35d + 10.
