Answer: -11y - 35x

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem utilizes the Distributive Property of Multiplication.  It states that: a(x + y) = ax + ay.

Thus, utilizing this property (distributing -7), change the equation into:

3y - 35x - 14y

Then, simply combine like terms to get:

-11y - 35x

Hope it helps :) and let me know if you want me to elaborate.
