1. The problem is to simplify $\sin\left(\frac{3\pi}{2} - x\right)$.
2. We use the sine difference identity:
$$\sin(a - b) = \sin a \cos b - \cos a \sin b$$
3. Substitute $a = \frac{3\pi}{2}$ and $b = x$:
$$\sin\left(\frac{3\pi}{2} - x\right) = \sin\frac{3\pi}{2} \cos x - \cos\frac{3\pi}{2} \sin x$$
4. Evaluate $\sin\frac{3\pi}{2}$ and $\cos\frac{3\pi}{2}$:
- $\sin\frac{3\pi}{2} = -1$
- $\cos\frac{3\pi}{2} = 0$
5. Substitute these values back:
$$-1 \cdot \cos x - 0 \cdot \sin x = -\cos x$$
6. Therefore, the simplified form is $-\cos x$.
7. The correct answer is option d. $-\cos x$.
