Answer: They are both correct :)

Step-by-step explanation:

They are both correct because 7x + (-3) is the same thing as 7x - 3 if you simplify it.

When you simplify it, you change the expression to:

7x + 1 (-3)

So now you have to distribute the 1 which gives you:

7x - 3

..since positive x negative is negative.
