The answer would be x+y cause you'll put 2x+3y+2x-2y-3x then add 2x+2x cause they both have x and it would be 4x then subtract the 3 cause it's a negative so it would be x. Now 3y-2y cause 3 is a positive and 2 is a negative so when you get your answer it would be y so since both x and y is a positive you do x+y and that's your answer
