The answer would be -25.

-18 - 7 (simplify brackets)

-25 (simplify)

Just simply change it to addition and add 18 + 7 and u get 25 but since its negative grab your - sign back and add it to the 25.

The answer would be -25. If you were to look at it on a number line, starting a the point at -18, go to you left 7 spaces (since you are subtracting 7 from -18). From there you reach upon -25, which would be your answer
