- $$\left( - 8 x ^ { 7 } - 5 x ^ { 6 } + 2 x ^ { 5 } + 2 \right) + \left( 5 x ^ { 7 } - 8 x ^ { 6 } + 6 x ^ { 5 } + 5 \right)$$

• A) \(- 3 x ^ { 7 } - 3 x ^ { 6 } + 4 x ^ { 5 } + 3\)
• B) \(13 x ^ { 7 } - 3 x ^ { 6 } + 4 x ^ { 5 } + 3\)
• C) \(13 x ^ { 7 } - 3 x ^ { 6 } + 4 x ^ { 5 } + 7\)
• D) \(- 3 x ^ { 7 } - 13 x ^ { 6 } + 8 x ^ { 5 } + 7\)
