To solve the problem, let's first clarify the equation you presented: \( 9^{-2} \).

The expression \( 9^{-2} \) can be rewritten using the property of negative exponents:

\[
9^{-2} = \frac{1}{9^2}
\]

Next, calculate \( 9^2 \):

\[
9^2 = 81
\]

Now, substitute this back into the equation:

\[
9^{-2} = \frac{1}{81}
\]

Thus, the value of \( 9^{-2} \) is \( \frac{1}{81} \).

From the options presented:

- \( -81 \)
- \( -9 \)
- \( \frac{1}{9} \)
- \( \frac{1}{81} \)

The correct answer is \( \frac{1}{81} \).
