The expression is : 3x-7

First of all, since it is a subtraction, then we are talking about differences between numbers
Then, since we have 3x, then we have 3 times a certain number "x"
After that, since we have 7 removed from the 3x, therefore, we have the difference between three times a number "x" and 7

Based on this, the right choice is "a"
