To write this equation in simplest form, we simply need to combine all like terms. The like terms in this particular expression are the terms with an n-variable and the terms with no variable. So we can combine them to simplify our expression.
5n - 6 + n - 1
First step, we can reorder our terms so that like terms are near each other
5n + n - 6 - 1
Now we can combine easily
(5n + n) - (6 - 1)
6n - 5
And that is your simplified expression.
5n - 6 + n - 1 in simplest form is 6n - 5.
Hope that helped! =)
This would be the identity property of addition telling us that any number added to zero is that number (i.e. 6 added to zero is still 6)

Answer:
Area of the figure = 36 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of the given composite figure = Area of the rectangle ABCE - Area of triangle CDE
Area of rectangle ABCE = Length × Width
= AB × AC
= 6 × 8
= 48 in²
Area of triangle CDE = 
= 
= 12 in²
Now area of the composite figure = 48 - 12
= 36 square inch
