Exponential Property [Rewrite]: [tex]\displaystyle b^{-m} = \frac{1}{b^m}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

[tex]\displaystyle f(x) = 3^x[/tex]

Step 2: Evaluate

  1. Substitute in x [Function f(x)]:                                                                           [tex]\displaystyle f(-2) = 3^{-2}[/tex]
  2. Rewrite [Exponential Property - Rewrite]:                                                      [tex]\displaystyle f(-2) = \frac{1}{3^2}[/tex]
  3. Exponents:                                                                                                       [tex]\displaystyle f(-2) = \frac{1}{9}[/tex]
