3^(-2) = 1/(3^2) = 1/(3*3) = 1/9
The rule used here is x^(-y) = 1/(x^y) to make the exponent positive.
3^2 turns into 3*3 because the exponent 2 tells us how many copies of the base '3' to multiply out.
Your answers are c (abc sports) and b ($2,975)
do you need me to explain the math?
1/4
since there is 4 letters in the word math
so 1 out of 4

I = p * r * t
264 = p * .06 * 2
264 = .12p
Divide both sides by .12
p = $2200
