Answer: Undefined

Explanation:

For this problem, we know that 3ˣ=-9. All we have to do is figure out what x is.

We know that any integer raised to the power cannot be negative. The closest answer we can get is x=2 because 3²=9. Unfortunately, we are looking for -9. Therefore, this x is undefined.
