Keep in mind that a 55-300 will not give you anything in the wide angle area. The D7500 has a crop frame sensor and a common "normal" zoom that goes from moderate wide angle to short telephoto is usually in the 18-55mm range. Yes, they make wide angle to much longer telephoto lenses, such as the 18-200, and even an 18-300 lens, but these come with compromises in quality and a higher price tag. As Needa said, a lot depends on what you want to shoot, but most folks want something in the wide angle to normal range. Something like an 18-55 and 70-300 would be a good pair, and this is a common pairing for a set of kit lens sold with a body. Often the "kit" lenses are lower quality, and lower price than some mechanically and optically superior offerings, still many are surprisingly good for the money. A lot of experienced photographers advocate buying high quality lenses that will perform well and last a long time.
Also, be aware that if you are looking at focal lengths from 35mm film cameras, you will need to using the 1.5 crop frame adjustment to get a similar field of view for your crop frame camera. IOW a 50mm "normal" lens for a full frame 35mm camera, will give you the same view as a 75mm short telephoto on your crop frame D7500. That may be a bit confusing at first, but is critical to making a good decision for your camera.
