​​​55g − 15

Answer 1

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

1. Multiply \(-5\) by \(-3\):
\[
-5 \times -3 = 15
\]

2. Multiply \(-5\) by \(-11g\):
\[
-5 \times -11g = 55g
\]

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

Since we typically write expressions in standard form (with the variable term first), we may rearrange this to:
\[
55g + 15
\]

Therefore, the correct expanded expression is:
\[
\boxed{55g + 15}
\]
