​​​55g − 15

Answer 1

To expand the expression \(-5(-3 - 11g)\), we can distribute \(-5\) to both terms inside the parentheses.

1. Distributing \(-5\) to \(-3\):
\[
-5 \cdot -3 = 15
\]

2. Distributing \(-5\) to \(-11g\):
\[
-5 \cdot -11g = 55g
\]

Now, we combine these results:
\[
15 + 55g
\]

So, the fully expanded expression is:
\[
55g + 15
\]

Thus, the correct response is:
**55g + 15** (or **55 g plus 15**).
