$9\sqrt{10}$

Work Step by Step

$-6\sqrt{10}+5\sqrt{90}\longrightarrow$ factor the perfect square out of 90 =$-6\sqrt{10}+5\sqrt{9\times10}\longrightarrow$ multiplication property of square roots =$-6\sqrt{10}+5(\sqrt{9})(\sqrt{10})\longrightarrow$ simplify =$-6\sqrt{10}+5(3)(\sqrt{10})\longrightarrow$ multiply =$-6\sqrt{10}+15\sqrt{10}\longrightarrow$ use distributive property =$\sqrt{10}(-6+15)\longrightarrow$ simplify =$9\sqrt{10}$
