9^x = 1/729
1/9^-x = 1/9^3
so,-x = 3
x = -3
1/9^-x = 1/9^3
so,-x = 3
x = -3

Q. Solve for x
9^x = 1/729
Solution :
By finding,
the factors of 729 = 9×9×9 = (9)^3
So,
=> 9^x = 1/(9)^3
=> 9^x = (9)^-3
Now bases are same,
now equating their powers
=> x = -3
Hence, value of x = -3
=================================
Verification
(9)^x
Putting the value of x = -3
= 9^-3
= 1/(9)^3
= 1/729
9^x = 1/729
