9x-5, I guess, not sure, but I'm combining like terms. Hope it's right.

Answer:
9x-5

Explanation:

The given expression :
(4x- 6) + (5x + 1)

To simplify the given expression we use BODMAS [bracket→ of→ divide→ multiplication→ add→subtract]

First open bracket, we get


(4x -6) + (5x + 1)\\\\=4x-6+5x+1

Now, combine the like terms, we get


=4x+5x+1-6\\\\=9x-5
