Meds:

do you meant
x 3+2 2 ? (Sometimes written as x^3 + x^2 )

You can't simplify this, they are unlike terms because they have different powers so you can't add them together.

However you can factorise if you want to.
Both terms can be divided by x 2
so it equals
x 2(x+1)

Hi Peter,
I like that you had a go at meds question.
but if a number and a letter are together without anything inbetween then there is an invisable x sign not a plus.
it is usual for the number to go first so.

3x is 3 multiplied by x NOT 3+x
