Apply the Property of Negative Integer Exponents to solve 3−4. The answer should not contain any exponent expression or decimals.(1 point)

3−4 =?

1 answer

Using the property of negative integer exponents, we have:

3^(-4) = 1/(3^4)

To simplify further, we have:

3^(-4) = 1/(3^2 * 3^2)

= 1/(9 * 9)

= 1/81

Therefore, 3^(-4) = 1/81.
