Do problem 2 first, and then it's easy to apply it to these specific examples. -Josh
look on page 387, there is one line of print and then an example (it doesnt have a number), but it shows it pretty clearly...I got the answer to be 3 (which is also the answer in the back of the book)...9^3=729
No need to do problem 2 first, just look at the example mentioned above.
