The answer is 7 because adding a negative number is the same as subtracting it, so 11 - 4 = 7.
(Note that this is the opposite of subtracting a negative number which results in addition.)

adding a positive number to a negative number is the same as a positive minus a positive number.
11+(-4)=7
11-4=7

11 + (-4) is same as just 11-4 so it's 7. adding a negitive is the same as subtracting.
