You need to add a -1

We can find this by setting up the equation like so

x + (-6) + 12 + 15 / 4 = 5

x + 21 = 20

x = 20 -21

x = -1

Now if we insert -1 where x is located in the equation, you will get a means of 5

Max points easy math problem

Solution:

Given:

x = -4
y = 4

Substitute the values into the equation:

x⁶ - x/4y
=> [(-4)⁶] - (-4)/4(4)

Simplify the numerator and the denominator:

=> [(-4) x (-4) x (-4) x (-4) x (-4) x (-4)] + 4/16
=> [(-64) x (-64)] + 4/16
=> [4096] + 4/16
=> 4100/16

Simplify the fraction:

=> 4100/16
=> 1025 x 4/4 x 4
=> 1025/4

Correct option is B.
