Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\tt -7x-1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the expression:

[tex](3x+2)+(-10x-3)[/tex]

Combine like terms.

The terms with variables can be combined, then the terms without variables (constants) can be combined.

[tex](3x+-10x)+(2+-3)[/tex]

[tex](3x-10x)+(2-3)[/tex]

Subtract 10x from 3x.

[tex](-7x)+(2-3)[/tex]

Subtract 3 from 2.

[tex](-7x)+(-1)[/tex]

[tex]-7x-1[/tex]

The simplified expression is -7x-1
