Explanation:


\tt{(6 {x}^(3) + 3 {x}^(2) + 3) + (2 {x}^(3) - 5x + 1) }

Remove the unnecessary parentheses


\tt{6 {x}^(3) + 3 {x}^(2) + 3 + 2 {x}^(3) - 5x + 1 }

Combine like terms. Like terms are those which have the same base. Remember that only coefficients of like terms can be added or subtracted and their bases remains the same.


\tt{6 {x}^(3) + 2 {x}^(3) +3 {x}^(2) + 3 + 1 - 5x}


\tt{8 {x}^(3) + 3 {x}^(2) + 4 - 5x}

In standard form , the expression should be written in a way that power of variables goes from highest to lowest.


\red{ \boxed{ \boxed{ \tt{Our \: final \: answer : \boxed {\underline{ \tt{8 {x}^(3) + 3 {x}^(2) - 5x + 4}}}}}}}

Hope I helped ! ♡

Have a wonderful day / night ! ツ
