copy the problem corectly
this is what it SHOULD look like
a%5Em%2B6a%5Em%2A%28a%5E%282m%29%29-1=a%5Em%2B6a%5E%283m%29-1 you have use parenthesis around exponents, otherwise i can't tell if a is to the power of m or m+6
we're not mind readers, use proper notation like i've used, so it comes out like a formula instead of a^m+6 you need to have either a%5Em%2B6 or a%5E%28m%2B6%29.
