-3c·-3c
answer attempt 1 out of 2
type the base, then use the (a^b) button or type the ^ symbol on your keyboard for the exponent.
condensed form: (square) (a^b)
answer: (square) (a^b)

Explanation:

Step1: Group like terms

$(-3 \cdot -3) \cdot (c \cdot c)$

Step2: Multiply constants and condense variables

$9 \cdot c^2$

Step3: Write condensed exponential form

$(-3c)^2$

Answer:

Condensed Form: $(-3c)^2$
