((2)/(3)x-1)+((3)/(4)x+7)

we can remove the parenthesis


(2)/(3)x-1+(3)/(4)x+7

group the expression with X and the numbers, then operate


\begin{gathered} ((2)/(3)+(3)/(4))x+(-1+7) \\ \\ (((4*2)+(3*3))/(3*4))x+6 \\ \\ ((8+9)/(12))x+6 \\ \\ (17)/(12)x+6 \end{gathered}

we can represent the fraction as a mixed number because the numerato is greatr than the denominator


(17)/(12)\longrightarrow1(5)/(12)

so the final expression is


1(5)/(12)x+6

then the right option is the third
