Answer 2

They are simplified.

Answer 3

You can't further simplify 1/2.

Answer 4

Oh. Wait. Indices.

Answer 5

rewrite the power as an improper fraction

\[9^{\frac{3}{2}}\]

and rewrite 9 as a power of 3

then use the power of a power law... multiply the powers

\[(3^2)^{\frac{3}{2}} = 3^{\frac{3}{2} \times 2}\]

and simplify

Answer 6

does it equal to 9 over 2??

Answer 7

is the final answer 9
