Question

Match the following items by evaluating the expression for x = -6. x^-2 x^-1 x^0 x^1 x^2

Answer 1

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

x = -6  ⇒

• x^-2  = (-6)^-2 = 1/36
• x^-1  = (-6)^-1 = -1/6
• x^0  = (-6)^0 = 1
• x^1  = (-6)^1 = -6
• x^2 = (-6)^2 = 36

Answer 2

Answer:

x =  - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

x = -6x⁻² x⁻¹ x⁰ x¹ x²

x² = 0,  x = 0

x¹  = 0, x = 0

the following points are undefined

x = 0

combine undefined points with solutions:

x = - 6
