To find an expression that has the same sum as \(-15 + 6\), we first calculate that sum:

\[ -15 + 6 = -9 \]

Now we need to evaluate the provided responses to see which one also equals \(-9\):

  1. \(15 + 6 = 21\)
  2. \(15 + (-6) = 9\)
  3. \(15 + (-6) = 9\) (duplicate of the previous)
  4. \(-6 + (-15) = -21\)
  5. \(-6 + (-15) = -21\) (duplicate of the previous)
  6. \(6 + (-15) = -9\)

Thus, the expression that has the same sum as \(-15 + 6\) is:

\[ 6 + (-15) \]

So, the correct response is \(6 + (-15)\).
