Answer 1

Answer:

9x - 5  

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify:

• (4x − 6) + (5x + 1) =        ⇒ opening parenthesis
• 4x - 6 + 5x +1 =              
• (4x+ 5x) + (1 -6) =           ⇒ grouping like terms
• 9x + (- 5) =                     ⇒ simplifying like terms
• 9x - 5                             ⇒ answer

Correct choice: B. 9x -5
