    There are two steps to this problem.

    1. We must distribute 3 into (y+5)

    6x - 5y + 2 - 8x + 3 (y + 5)

    6x - 5y + 2 - 8x + 3y + 15

    2. We must then combine like terms.

    Anything with an "x" can be added together.

    Anything with a "y" can be added together.

    Anything without an "x" or "y" can be added together.

    6x - 5y + 2 - 8x + 3y + 15

    -2x - 2y + 17

    Your answer is C) - 2x - 2y + 17
