Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation

\[
\int_{0}^{z} (\sin x - \cos x) \, dx\]

where \( z = \frac{\pi}{4} \), we have:

\[\int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{4}} (\sin x - \cos x) \, dx = \left[-\cos x - \sin x\right]_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{4}}\]

Evaluating at the bounds gives:

\[-\sqrt{2} - (-1) = -\sqrt{2} + 1\]

Thus, the value of the integral is:

\[\int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{4}} (\sin x - \cos x) \, dx = 1 - \sqrt{2}\]
