A negative exponent just means that the base is on the wrong side of the fraction line, so you need to flip the base to the other side.

its actually 10 points
x^4 + 9x^3 + 15x^2 + 9x + 14
Split 15x^2 into 14x^2 + x^2
x^4 + 9x^3 + 14x^2 + x^2 + 9x + 14 factor as
x^2 [x^2 + 9x + 14 ] + 1 [ x^2 + 9x + 14 ] take out GCF
[ x^2 + 1 ] [ x^2 + 9x + 14 ]
[ x^2 + 1 ] [ x + 7 ] [ x + 2 ]

Solve for x:
2 (6 - x) = x (x + 5)
Expand out terms of the left hand side:
12 - 2 x = x (x + 5)
Expand out terms of the right hand side:
12 - 2 x = x^2 + 5 x
Subtract x^2 + 5 x from both sides:
-x^2 - 7 x + 12 = 0
Multiply both sides by -1:
x^2 + 7 x - 12 = 0
x = (-7 ± sqrt(7^2 - 4 (-12)))/2 = (-7 ± sqrt(49 + 48))/2 = (-7 ± sqrt(97))/2:
Answer: x = (-7 + sqrt(97))/2 or x = (-7 - sqrt(97))/2
