OpenStudy (godlovesme):

is that 3 to the -2 power?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah, sorry I should have clarified it. So sorry for that.

OpenStudy (godlovesme):

that's alright :) just making sure so that means \[3/1^2\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, thank you so much!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

WELL 3^-2 = -9

OpenStudy (anonymous):
