2t2+5t+3

Explanation:

Collect up like terms for this expression.

Those brackets do not mean anything in this case since the only operations are subtraction and multiplication.

5t2+7t2+4t+t3+6
=2t2+5t+3

Always perform the operations when they are the same, do not collect up like terms when they are not alike.
e.g
4t2+t
You cannot add them together since the pronumeral isn't the same.
