Answer: A and B

-3^4 = -3 × -3 × -3 × -3 = 81

When dealing with multiplying all negative numbers, the result is going to be positive.

-3^2 = -3 × -3 = 9

Explanation:

Divide

81/9 = 9

Find an equivalent expression whose product is |+9|

A)

(-3)^2 = -3 × -3 = 9

(-3)^4 = -3 × -3 × -3 × -3 = 81

81/9 = 9

A is correct, so we must find the next correct answer.

B)

(-3)^6 = -3 × -3 × -3 × -3 × -3 × -3 = 729

(-3)^4 = -3 × -3 × -3 × -3 = 81

729/81 = 9

B is correct. Thus,


((-3)^4)/((-3)^2) = B)((-3)^6)/((-3)^4) = A)((-3)^2)/((-3)^4)

Hope this helps, and have a great day.
