To solve this problem, we will follow the order of operations (also known as PEMDAS). First, we will simplify any exponents:

(1/2)^2 = 1/4

Now, we will simplify the multiplication and division from left to right:

1/4⋅12 = 12/4 = 3

Finally, we will simplify the addition and subtraction from left to right:

3 - 9 + 3^2 = 3 - 9 + 9 = -6 + 9 = 3

Therefore, the solution to the multi-step problem is 3.
