\(\huge\text{Hey there!}\)
\(\large\text{Equation \#1}\)
\(\mathsf{-4 - (8)}\\\mathsf{= -4 - 8}\\\mathsf{= -12}\\\\\large\text{Therefore, your answer is: \boxed{\mathsf{-12}}}\huge\checkmark\)
\(\large\text{Equation \#2}\)
\(\mathsf{-9\dfrac{1}{3} - (-1\dfrac{1}{3})}\\\\\mathsf{= - \dfrac{28}{3} - (- \dfrac{4}{3})}\\\\\mathsf{= -\dfrac{28}{3} + \dfrac{4}{3}}\\\\\mathsf{= -\dfrac{8}{1}}\\\\\mathsf{= -8 \div 1}\\\\\mathsf{= -8}\\\\\large\text{Therefore, your answer is: \boxed{\mathsf{-8}}}\huge\checkmark\)
\(\huge\text{Good luck on your assignment \& enjoy your day!}\)
