3y + 2x
are you sure it's not 5xy?
\(2x \times 3y\) is supposed to be 5xy, not 2x + 3y.
Or actually that'd be 6xy
it's + not X

\[2xy+3xy=5xy\] \[2x\times3y=6xy\] \[2x+3y=3y+2x\]
x and y are different letters so you cant add them ^_^ just remember that simple rule
You can add the terms with the SAME variable(s) to the SAME degree. In your case, the variables of the terms are not that same. For the first term, it's x; for the second term, it's y. So, you cannot add them together. Hope this helps
