To simplify this expression, we need to use the distributive property to multiply 38 by both terms inside the parentheses. This gives:

14x + 38(16x + 16) = 14x + (38 * 16x) + (38 * 16)

Multiplying 38 by 16x gives 608x, and multiplying 38 by 16 gives 608. So the expression becomes:

14x + 608x + 608

Combining like terms, we get:

622x + 608

Therefore, 14x + 38(16x + 16) simplifies to 622x + 608.
