That depends on what the question is asking.
If the expression is 9^(π/2), then the answer would be B.
If the expression is (9^π)/2, then the answer would be C and you would be correct.
If the expression is 9^(π/2), then the answer would be B.
If the expression is (9^π)/2, then the answer would be C and you would be correct.

Observing the algebraic order of operations as we must, there is only one correct interpretation of the expression. Nine is raised to the power π, and that result is divided by 2.
9^π/2 = (9^π)/2 ≈ 497.521
9^π/2 = (9^π)/2 ≈ 497.521
-
per PEDMAS: 9^π/2 = (9^π)/2 ≈ 497.5
9^(π/2) = 31.544
9^(π/2) = 31.544

yes the answer's c
