Answer
$x=\frac{7}{3}$
Work Step by Step
$\frac{(2 + 4)^2 + (-1)^5}{12\div2\times3 - 3}$
Solve for the numerator:
$(2 + 4)^2 + (-1)^5$
$= (6)^2-1$
$=36-1$
$=35$
Solve for the denominator:
$12\div2\times3 - 3$
$=6\times3-3$
$=18-3$
$=15$
Thus, the equation is equal to $\frac{35}{15}$ or $\frac{7}{3}$.
