Simplify the following expression: 2x - 6y + 3x² + 7y - 14x.

The given algebraic expression can be simplified by combining like terms.

Answer: We obtain 3x² - 12x + y by simplifying the expression: 2x - 6y + 3x² + 7y - 14x.

Let's simplify 2x - 6y + 3x² + 7y - 14x.

Explanation:

2x - 6y + 3x² + 7y - 14x

= 3x² + 2x - 14x + 7y - 6y ---------> rearranging the terms

= 3x² + (2 - 14)x + (7 - 6)y ---------> combining like terms

= 3x² - 12x + y
