\[-3^{-2}=-\frac{1}{3^2}\]
\[(-3)^{-2}=\frac{1}{(-3)^2}=\frac{1}{3^2}\]
thanks, what about -3^0
\[-3^0=-1\] but \[(-3)^0=1\]
so its a trick question? there are no parenthesis

do you think the - is ment to squared too?
the actual question was solve for x= -3 x^-2 x^-1 x^0 x^1 x^2 i solved t he x^1 and x^2 myself
well all of x is being squared so the negative would get squared ...etc
when \[x=-3\]\[x^{-2}=(-3)^{-2}=\frac{1}{(-3)^2}\]
i hope you squared away the negative in x^2 when x=-3

yes, -3^2=9
yeah but to avoid confusion is is better to write (-3)^2=9
ok, thanks
\[\Huge{\color{red}{-3x^{-2}}}\]\[\LARGE{\color{green}{\implies \frac{1}{-3^2}^2}}\]\[\LARGE{\color{blue}{\implies x=\frac{1}{9}}}\]
