Start off by combining like terms on the LHS (the terms with x in them).
So we get
Replacing this result with what we had before on the LHS, we get
⇒Solve for x (divide both sides
)
⇒Don't forget about reciprocity rules when dividing. This is the same as multiplying both sides by
⇒
⇒
***This is a proper fraction

-1:
(-1,1)
0:
(0, 2)
1:
(1, 4)
2:
(2, 8)
3:
(3,16)
b.
To graph the equation, simply go through the points (-2, 0.5), (-1, 1), (0,2), (1,4), (2,8), and (3,16). Make sure you never go below 0 on the x-axis, because there's an asymptote there.
Hope this helps!
