To simplify the expression \((3x^2 - 2) + (11 - 5x)\), we can combine like terms:

1. Start with the expression:
\[
3x^2 - 2 + 11 - 5x
\]

2. Combine the constant terms \(-2\) and \(11\):
\[
3x^2 - 5x + (11 - 2) = 3x^2 - 5x + 9
\]

Thus, the simplified expression is:
\[
3x^2 - 5x + 9
\]

The correct response is:
**3x²−5x+9** (3 x squared minus 5 x plus 9).
