?????????? (x/6) -[(y+44) /(297/6)]=0  & y=35 ??????????

297/6=49.5

y+44 become 35+44=79

(x/6) -(79 / 49.5)=0....79/49.5=1.5959595959595959...

(x/6) -1.59595959595...=0

(x/6)=1.59595959595...

x=6*1.59595959595...

x=9.57575757575757...

There is a good deal of ambiguity in this question. I'm assuming x(9) means x^9. I interpret the question as:

((x^9/6)-(y+44)/297)/6=0. Therefore, x^9/6=79/297, when y=35. x^9=6*79/297=158/99. Therefore 9logx=log(158/99),  logx=0.022558 approx. So x=1.0533 approx. This may be the solution, but other solutions are possible depending on interpretation of the question.

Another solution is x=0, if the denominator of x^9 is the whole of the expression following "If x(9)". In this interpretation the value of y is irrelevant.
