I can help you solve this..
First, look at the quantity of the exponent at the end: 45.
Then, look at the quantity of the first exponent: -9
Now, the middle exponent is: b
To find b, you will need to find which of the numbers in your choices multiplied by -9= 45.
Which one do you think it is? (:

Also note that a negative number times a negative number equals a positive number.

No, not quite.
If you take the first exponent, which is -9, what do you multiply that by to get 45?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
-5
whitemonsterbunny17 (whitemonsterbunny17):
Yes, that is correct! *^.^*
