Since neither of the bracketed expressions is preceded by a minus sign, and neither one has a multiplier outside of it, all of the parentheses can simply be removed.

(3x - 5) + (3x + 6)

3x - 5 + 3x + 6

Combine the 'x'-terms:  3x + 3x = 6x
Combine the numbers:  -5 + 6 = 1

The expression is equivalent to . . . . . 6x + 1
