Simplify (3x3y2 − 5xy4 − 2xy) + (2x3y2 + 5xy4 + 3xy).

5x3y2 − 2xy4 + xy
5x3y2 − 2xy4 − 5xy
5x3y2 + xy
5x3y2 − xy

To simplify the expression (3x^3y^2 - 5xy^4 - 2xy) + (2x^3y^2 + 5xy^4 + 3xy), we need to combine like terms.

The terms that have the same variables raised to the same powers are:

3x^3y^2 and 2x^3y^2, which add up to 5x^3y^2

-5xy^4 and 5xy^4, which cancel each other out

-2xy and 3xy, which add up to xy

Putting these like terms together, we get:

(3x^3y^2 - 5xy^4 - 2xy) + (2x^3y^2 + 5xy^4 + 3xy) = 5x^3y^2 + xy

Therefore, the simplified expression is 5x^3y^2 + xy.
