-1111

Explanation:

First, understand that during addition; if the biggest number in the equation is negative, the answer would be negative.

The second number is also a negative because it has a subtraction sign before it.
If this makes it easier, you can make the subtraction sign positive (addition sign) and 4 a negative number. The equation would turn out like:

-7 + -47+4

Then, all that is left is adding the two together.
If it is easier, ignore the negative sign.

7 + 4 = 117+4=11

But always remember to add the negative sign. Don't forget...
