$color(magenta)(=-3$

$3xx-2+6-(-2)-5$

According to BODMAS:

$=cancel(-6)cancel(+6)+2-5$

$=2-5$

$color(magenta)(=-3$

~Hope this helps! :)

$-3$

Count the number of terms first.

$color(red)(3xx-2)" " color(blue)(+" "6)" "color(green)(" "-" "(-2))" "color(brown)(-" "5)" "larr4$ terms

$= color(red)(-6)" " color(blue)(+" "6)" "color(green)(" "+" "2)" "color(brown)(-" "5)$

$= cancelcolor(red)(-6)" " cancelcolor(blue)(+" "6)" "color(green)(" "+" "2)" "color(brown)(-" "5)$

$=-3$
