Answer:

y = 1/9

Step-by-step explanation:

(-2, y) = (x, y)

y = 3^x

y = 3^(-2)

y = 1/9

Therefore y = 1/9

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{9}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

This question is asking us what the value of y is when x is -2, hence the point (-2,y).

[tex]y=3^x[/tex]

To find y, replace x in the equation with -2 and evaluate:

[tex]y=3^-^2[/tex]

When [tex]a^-^n[/tex] where n>0, [tex]a^-^n=\displaystyle \frac{1}{a^n}[/tex]:

[tex]y=\displaystyle \frac{1}{3^2} \\\\y=\displaystyle \frac{1}{9}[/tex]

I hope this helps!
