Greetings!
To simplify the expression above, we will need to combine the like terms.
These include terms of...
→ The first degree (For Example: [tex] 6^{1}+7^{1}=6+7 [/tex])
→ The same variable (For Example: [tex] 6x+2x [/tex])
Here is this process demonstrated with the provided expression:
[tex]=25x + 14 - 17 - 6x [/tex]
Let's separate all unlike terms:
[tex]=(25x-6x)+(14-17)[/tex]
Now we can combine them utilizing the correct operations:
[tex]=(19x)+(-3)[/tex]
[tex]=19x-3[/tex]
The fully simplified expression is:
[tex]\boxed{=19x-3}[/tex]
I hope this helped!
