Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation

\(3^{-4}\times 9^2 \times 81^{-1}\)
=\(log_9 (3^{-4}\times 9^2 \times 81^{-1})\)
= \(log_9 \left(\frac{1}{3^4}\times 9^2 \times \frac{1}{81}\right)\)
= \(log_9 \left(\frac{1}{81}\times \frac{81}{1}\times \frac{1}{81}\right)\)
= \(log_9 \frac{1}{81}\)
= \(log_9 \frac{1}{9^2}\)
= \(log_9 9^{-2}\)
= -2\(log_9 9\)
- 2 \(\times 1\)
= -2
