If the minus is throwing you off, just use the asoociative property (switch the numbers around):
7x-11x+9+6
Combine like terms:
-4x+15

First: combine "like" terms according to the operations given:
= 7x - 11x + 9 +6
= -4x + 15
You don't set this equation to equal zero to solve for "x" because this is an expression.
