b If 3 and −2 are swapped and −1 and 4
are swapped, then the top number will be b i x = −2 or 1

9 a 1 × −6 or −1 × 6 or 2 × −3 or −2 × 3
9 a Yes. If x = 5 then
b 1 × 6 or −1 × −6 or 2 × 3 or −2 × −3
x3 − x = 53 − 5 = 125 − 5 = 120
10 a 63 ÷ −9 = −7 or 63 ÷ −7 = − 9
b No. If x = −5 then
b −84 ÷ 12 = − 7 or −84 ÷ −7 = 12 x3 − x = −125 − −5 = − 120

number. So is 4 = 4096 or 5 = 15 625;
–5 –3 –6
other answers are possible.
–5 1 –3 2
11 x6 = 64
3 2
So (x ) = 64
14 a −6 b 12 c −12 d 8 3
So x = 8 or −8
15 a 32 b −40 c −4 d −5 3
If x = 8 then x = 2
16 a True. −3 × (−6 × −4) = −3 × 24 = −72 and 3
If x = −8 then x = −2
(−3 × −6) × −4 = 18 × −4 = −72
There are two possible answers, x = 2 or −2
b False. −24 ÷ (−4 ÷ −2) = −24 ÷ 2 = −12 and
(−24 ÷ −4) ÷ −2 = 6 ÷ −2 = −3
