How do you solve #x^ (-2/3) = 9#? Algebra Radicals and Geometry Connections Radical Equations 1 Answer Jim H Oct 23, 2017 Please see below. Explanation: Write it as #1/((root(3)x)^2) = 9# So #1/9 = (root(3)x)^2# #root(3)x = +- sqrt(1/9) = +- 1/3# #x = (+-1/3)^3 = +- 1/27# Answer link Related questions How do you solve radical equations?
