Answer:

(-2x - 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is ( 3x - 5 ) - ( 5x + 1 )

We have to simplify the given expression

First we will open the bracket having negative notation outside.

( 3x - 5 ) - 5x - 1

3x - 5 - 5x - 1

Now we will collect the similar terms together.

3x - 5x - 5 -1

-2x - 6

So the simplified form of the expression is (-2x - 6)
