WHAT IS THIS LANGUAGE ? PLEASE TRY TO USE ENGLISH !
A^2 +a-6. You use the method of foiling where you multiply the first two terms, the the outside terms, the inside terms, then the last terms. You would do a•a, then a•-2 the a•3 then 3•-2. You would get a^2 -2a +3a -6. Then combine like terms to get your answer.
I'm gonna say A. It makes the most sense to me.
Answer:
use logarithms
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking the logarithm of an expression with a variable in the exponent makes the exponent become a coefficient of the logarithm of the base.

You will note that this approach works well enough for ...
a^(x+3) = b^(x-6) . . . . . . . . . . . variables in the exponents
(x+3)log(a) = (x-6)log(b) . . . . . a linear equation after taking logs
but doesn't do anything to help you solve ...
x +3 = b^(x -6)
There is no algebraic way to solve equations that are a mix of polynomial and exponential functions.

Some functions have been defined to help in certain situations. For example, the "product log" function (or its inverse) can be used to solve a certain class of equations with variables in the exponent. However, these functions and their use are not normally studied in algebra courses.
In any event, I find a graphing calculator to be an extremely useful tool for solving exponential equations.
