From the power rules, the power [tex]3^{-2}[/tex] is equal to the fraction [tex](\frac{1}{3})^{-2}[/tex].

Power Rules

There are different power rules one of them is the negative exponent. For this rule when you have a negative exponent, you need to invert the number, i.e, the power base is converted to the denominator. After that, you should solve the power with a positive exponent.  See the  examples:

[tex]5^{-3}=(\frac{1}{5})^3=\frac{1}{125} \\ \\ \\ {\frac{4}{6} }^{-2}={\frac{6}{4} }^2=\frac{36}{16}[/tex]

Then, the question gives:

[tex]3^{-2}=({\frac{1}{3}})^2[/tex]
