If a and x are integers and a > x what is the value of x ?

(1) a^x = x^a
(2) ax > 0

1) \(a^x = x^a\)

\(4^2 = 2^4\) ...so x =2 as a> x

Also , -4^(-2)= -2^(-4)..so x=-4 as a> x

We are getting 2 values for x...Insufficient

(2) ax > 0

This only gives sign of a and x are same...ie both are positive or both are negative .......Insufficient

(1)+(2)

Again we have same situation as outcome of (1)...so ...Insufficient

Answer E
