Answer:

-15 + 1/8x

Explanation:

calculate the difference

-9 +-6 = -15 then

1/4x -1/8x =1/8x

solution -15+1/8x

How to subtract 1/4x =1/8x ( this should help )

1/4x -1/8 x get the least common denominator which is 2

2x/2x4 -x/8 multiply the numbers

2x/8 - x/8 collect like terms (factor x/8 as 1/8) 1/8x
