The following result is what I get from the symbolic tool box with the order pretty() and simplify(). How can I have it further simplified?

I don’t see how you can simplify it much more, but if you want to convert the vpa integers to double values, use the Symbolic Math Toolbox double function.

Note that using vpa() or double() would result in approximation not simplification .

True, but I can’t imagine how much more it could be simplified.
Creating an anonymous function out of it with matlabFunction is the only other possibility I can think of.

vpa(yourExpression,16)
would give
2376416766.651975*exp(-130.000766*t) + 23583233.34802504
Is this the sort of thing what you're looking for?
