The expression 6^(-2) is equivalent to 1/36.
To find the equivalent expression for 6 - 2, there are multiple options to evaluate. Let's go through each option step-by-step.
1. 36: This is not equivalent to 6 - 2, as it results in a different value.
2. 136: This is not equivalent to 6 - 2.
3. Start Fraction 1 over 36 End Fraction: This is not equivalent to 6 - 2, as it represents a fraction rather than the difference of two numbers.
4. Start Fraction 1 over 6 superscript negative 2 baseline End Fraction: This is not equivalent to 6 - 2. It represents a fraction raised to a negative exponent, not a subtraction problem.
5. 126: This is not equivalent to 6 - 2.
Therefore, none of the options provided are equivalent to 6 - 2.
To determine which of the following options is equivalent to 6−2, we need to subtract 2 from 6.
Subtracting 2 from 6 gives us 4.
Therefore, option 4, which is 4, is the correct answer.
