Assuming that the x2 is x squared, B

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)(1) + 5(1) - 6 = 1 + 5 - 6 = 6 - 6 = 0

(-6)(-6) + 5(-6) - 6 = 36 - 30 - 6 = 6 - 6 = 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve using factoring.

x²+5x-6=0

5 is the sum of the numbers, while -6 is their product.

Think: which two numbers add up to 5, but when multiplied, equal -6?

Those numbers are -1 and 6.

Now factor the polynomial:

(x-1)(x+6)=0

split into parts:

(x-1)=0

x-1=0

x=1

(x+6)=0

x+6=0

x=-6

So B

Hope this helps!

$-(6)^{-1} = ?$
Representing in fraction for the best understanding
 $-(\frac{6}{1}) ^{-1} = ?$ 
When the exponent is negative, the inversion is made, the numerator becomes the denominator, and the denominator becomes the numerator, and the change of signal from the exponent, which was negative, becomes positive.
