To simplify the expression \( 2y - 3x + 7 - y + 7x \), combine like terms.
First, let's group the \( y \) terms and the \( x \) terms together:
-
Combine the \( y \) terms: \[ 2y - y = y \]
-
Combine the \( x \) terms: \[ -3x + 7x = 4x \]
-
The constant term is \( 7 \).
Putting everything together, we get: \[ y + 4x + 7 \]
Thus, the simplified expression is: \[ 4x + y + 7 \]
