The expression is given as x - 11

To determine the expression, we have that algebraic expressions are defined as expressions that are made up of terms, variables, constants, factors and coefficients.

From the information given, we have that;

The difference when (7x+10) is subtracted from (8x+1) in simplest terms

This is represented as;

8x -1 - (7x + 10)

expand the bracket, we have;

8x - 1 - 7x - 10

collect the like terms, we have;

x - 11
