$9x-2y=-21 \\\\ 9x=-21+2y \\\\ => \boxed{x=\frac{2y-21}{9}} \\\\ 2x+3y=16 \\\\ 2*\frac{2y-21}{9}+3y^{(9}=16^{(9} \\\\ 2(2y-21)+27y=144 \\\\ 4y-42+27y=144 \\\\ 31y=144+42 \\\\ 31y=186 \\\\ \boxed{y=\frac{186}{31}=6} \\\\ x=\frac{2*6-21}{9} \\\\ x=\frac{12-21}{9} \\\\ x=\frac{-9}{9} \\\\ \boxed{x=-1}$

Question 1 (Essay Worth 10 points) (01.02 MC) Part A: If (26)x = 1, what is the value of x? Explain your answer. (5 points) Part

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not clear. However, I will treat the question as:

$(26)x = 1$

$(50)x = 1$

and:

$(2^6)^x = 1$

$(5^0)^x = 1$

Solving: $(26)x = 1$ and $(50)x = 1$

$(26)x = 1$

Divide both sides by 26

$x = \frac{1}{26}$

$(50)x = 1$

Divide both sides by 50

$x = \frac{1}{50}$

Solving $(2^6)^x = 1$ and $(5^0)^x = 1$

$(2^6)^x = 1$

Express 1 as 2^0

$(2^6)^x = 2^0$

Remove bracket

$2^{6x} = 2^0$

Cancel out 2

$6x = 0$

Divide both sides by 6

$x = \frac{0}{6}$

$x = 0$

$(5^0)^x = 1$

Express 1 as 5^0

$(5^0)^x = 5^0$

Cancel out 5^0

$x = 1$
