Let's simplify the expression step by step:

  1. Start with the expression: \[ (f - 7) - (-6f + 1) \]

  2. Distribute the negative sign across the second set of parentheses: \[ f - 7 + 6f - 1 \]

  3. Now combine like terms:

    • Combine \(f\) and \(6f\): \[ f + 6f = 7f \]

    • Combine the constants \(-7\) and \(-1\): \[ -7 - 1 = -8 \]

  4. Therefore, the final simplified expression is: \[ 7f - 8 \]

So, the result of \((f - 7) - (-6f + 1)\) is: \[ \boxed{7f - 8} \]
