Use trial and error method for the possible values x and y

We know that at least one of these two have to be negative.

x can be 1, in which case y has to be 5.

Check this for

x+y ≠ -5

x can be -1

Try another one where x = -1 and y has to equal -2

Check this

X

viva [34]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

(3x) is raised to power 5

(3x)^5

Then,

Using indices

(AB)ⁿ = Aⁿ•Bⁿ

Then,

(3x)^5= 3^5•x^5

Then, 3^5 means=3×3×3×3×3=243
