Identify the expression to simplify: \$7(x - 3) + 10$.
Apply the distributive property by multiplying 7 with each term inside the parentheses: \$7 \times x\( and \)7 \times (-3)\(, which gives \)7x - 21$.
Rewrite the expression after distribution: \$7x - 21 + 10$.
Combine like terms by adding \(-21\) and \$10$ to simplify the constant part.
Write the simplified expression as \$7x$ plus the result of combining the constants.
