Answer:
x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
When an exponent is negative, you have to move it to the denominator (or to the numerator if it's already on the denominator). Since the answer is , you know that the 2 has been raised to the power of 1 (any number to the power of 1 is the same number), so you just make it negative. Hope that helps!

Answer:
no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
The equations describe parallel lines. There are no values of x and y that will satisfy both equations.
In standard form, the two equations are ...
3x +7y = 21
3x +7y = -42 . . . . . with positive leading coefficient
If (x, y) values satisfy the first equation, they cannot satisfy the second equation, and vice versa.
