To solve the equation −x^2.9 = −3, we need to isolate the variable x.

We start by multiplying both sides of the equation by -1 to remove the negative sign:

x^2.9 = 3

Then, we take the 2.9th root of both sides to eliminate the exponent:

x = √(3)^(1/2.9)

Using a calculator, we find that the approximate value of √(3)^(1/2.9) is 1.954.

Therefore, the solution to the equation is 1.954.
