File "", line 1, in 34*x^2+68*x-510 NameError: name 'x' is not defined" what am i doing wrong? Thanks, take care.

Answer 1

i would say you are not properly defining "x"

Answer 2

can you post your code?

Answer 3

i just wrote 34*x^2+68*x-510 directly i did the import math before and after that i just did 34*x^2+68*x-510 how can i define x? i'm really new at this

Answer 4

oh i did it, it was so simple, thanks anwyay for your time :)

Answer 5

Python doesn't use the carat ( "^" ) character for exponents. Python uses "**" so your answer isn't correct.

>>> x = 2
>>> x ^ 4
6
>>> x ** 4
16
