It maybe simple, but some bots can "see" text using Optical Character Recognition, whilst this will stop a basic bot, it will not stop a determined coder.

Basic intelligence captchas requiring the user to read and answer a question are needed, and imo the random numbers generated need to be smaller and the operation (addition, subtraction, multiplication etc) symbols made clearer so that you can't confuse + with x.

My two cents
