This is a problem to test your endurance, not your math skills!
(5x2-4)7 = sum from k=0 to k=7 of 7Ck*(5x2)k*(-4)7-k.Of course, I don't know whether the 4th term is when k=3 or when k=4!
The thing with the C is the binomial coefficient and you just have to do a bunch of mindless algebra to get the right answer.
