    7n - 10

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Whenever we have a "-" in front of an expression, the expression's signs change. For example:

    - (a - b) = - a + b

    The last part of the expression is:

    - (-2n + 7) Which will be

    2n - 7

    So, we now have:

    (5n - 3) + (2n - 7)

    We can take away the parenthesis, so we have:

    5n - 3 + 2n - 7

    We add up the variables and the numbers and have:

    5n + 2n = 7n

    -3 - 7 = - 10

    Our answer is

    7n - 10

    The last answer choice is right.
