To evaluate the expression \( x - y^3 \) when \( x = 9 \) and \( y = 6 \), we first need to calculate \( y^3 \):
\[
y^3 = 6^3 = 6 \times 6 \times 6 = 216
\]
Next, we substitute \( x \) and \( y^3 \) into the expression:
\[
x - y^3 = 9 - 216
\]
Now, we perform the subtraction:
\[
9 - 216 = -207
\]
So, the evaluated expression \( x - y^3 \) when \( x = 9 \) and \( y = 6 \) is \( -207 \).
Since none of the provided responses (3, 6, 1, 9) match the result of \(-207\), it seems there might be a discrepancy or misunderstanding with the options given.
