To find an expression that represents the sum of \(-4x - 5\) in simplest terms, we can simply take the expression itself since it already appears to be a linear expression.
However, if you want to explicitly represent summing this expression \(n\) times, you could write it as:
\[
n(-4x - 5) = -4nx - 5n
\]
If you are looking to just simplify \(-4x - 5\), then it is already in its simplest form.
Please clarify if you meant to sum the expression multiple times or perform another operation, and I would be glad to assist further!
