Answer:

In decimal


- 2.8

As fraction


( - 14)/(5)

And as mixed fraction


- 2 (4)/(5)

Explanation:

Greetings !

Given expression


f(x) = (x - 8)/(x + 11)

Thus, plug in -6 in the variable x and solve


f( - 6) = ( - 6 - 8)/( - 6 + 11)

solve -6-8 = -14

solve -6+11 = 5


= ( - 14)/(5)

Apply fraction rule


( - a)/(b) = - (a)/(b)

Thus


= - (14)/(5)

Convert iimproper fraction to mixed fraction .


(14)/(5) = 2 \: \: remainder \: \: 4


convert \: to \: mixed \: number \\ quotient (remainder)/(divisor)

whereas


(14)/(5) = 2 (4)/(5)


= - 2 (4)/(5)

Hope it helps !!!
