Hi! I'm happy to help!
To solve this, we simply have to replace x with the given values.
First, we have -14, let's apply that:
(5·(-14²))-(6·(-14))-14=
Now, let's solve (using the order of operations):
(5·(-14²))-(6·(-14))-14=
(5·196)-(6·(-14))-14=
980-(6·(-14))-14=
980-(-84)-14=
980+84-14=
1064-14=
1050=
1050≠-6
Option 1 is incorrect.
Next, let's substitute 14 for x:
(5·14²)-(6·14)-14=
Now, let's solve:
(5·14²)-(6·14)-14=
(5·196)-(6·14)-14=
980-(6·14)-14=
980-84-14=
896-14=
880=
880≠-6
Option 2 is incorrect.
Now, let's substitute -7 for x:
(5·(-7²))-(6·(-7))-14=
Now, let's solve:
(5·(-7²))-(6·(-7))-14=
(5·49)-(6·(-7))-14=
245-(6·(-7))-14=
245-(-42)-14=
245+42-14=
287-14=
273=
273≠-6
Option 3 is incorrect.
Now, let's substitute 7 for x:
(5·7²)-(6·7)-14=
Now, let's solve:
(5·49)-(6·7)-14=
245-(6·7)-14=
245-42-14=
203-14=
189=
189≠-6
Option 4 is incorrect.
Now, let's substitute -2 for x, and solve:
(5·(-2²))-(6·(-2))-14=
(5·4)-(6·(-2))-14=
20-(6·(-2))-14=
20-(-12)-14=
20+12-14=
32-14=
18=
18≠-6
Option 5 is incorrect.
Now, let's substitute 2 for x and solve:
(5·2²)-(6·2)-14=
(5·4)-(6·2)-14=
20-(6·2)-14=
20-12-14=
8-14=
-6=
-6=-6
Option 6 is correct.
Now, let's substitute -1 for x and solve:
(5·(-1²))-(6·(-1))-14=
(5·1)-(6·(-1))-14=
5-(6·(-1))-14=
5-(-6)-14=
5+6-14=
11-14=
-3=
-3≠-6
Option 7 is incorrect.
Now, let's substitute 1 for x and solve:
(5·1²)-(6·1)-14=
5-(6·1)-14=
5-6-14=
-1-14=
-15=
-15≠-6
Option 8 is incorrect.
Now, let's substitute -4/5 for x and solve:
(5·(-4/5²))-(6·(-4/5))-14=
(5·0.64)-(6·(-4/5))-14=
3.2-(6·(-4/5))-14=
3.2-(-4.8)-14=
3.2+4.8-14=
8-14=
-6=
-6=-6
Option 9 is correct.
Now let's substitute 4/5 for x and solve:
(5·4/5²)-(6·4/5)-14=
(5·0.64)-(6·4/5)-14=
3.2-(6·4/5)-14=
3.2-4.8-14=
-1.6-14
-15.6
-15.6≠-6
Option 10 is incorrect.
To summarize, you should pick option 6, and option 9.
I hope this was helpful, keep learning! :D
