3a^5 - (-a^5) = 3a^5 + a^5 = 4a^5

6a^7 - 2a^7 = 4a^7

-3a^5 - (-2a^5) = -3a^5 + 2a^5 = -a^5

7a^7 - 8a^7 = -a^7

Answer: The simplified of the given expression shown below.

Explanation:

Since, First expression,
3a^5-(- a^5)

We can write
3a^5-(- a^5)=
3a^5+a^5 =
4a^5

Second expression,
6a^7 - 2a^7


6a^7 - 2a^7= 4a^7

Third expression
-3a^5 - (-2a^5)


-3a^5 - (-2a^5) =
-3a^5 + 2a^5 =
-a^5

Fourth expression,
7a^7 - 8a^7


7a^7 - 8a^7 = -a^7
