Which of the following is an equivalent expression to 7(−5.3)0+4⋅9 when applying the Zero Power Rule? (1 point)
Responses
75.3+4⋅9
Start Fraction 7 over 5.3 End Fraction plus 4 times 9
71+4⋅9
Start Fraction 7 over 1 End Fraction plus 4 times 9
70+4⋅9
Start Fraction 7 over 0 End Fraction plus 4 times 9
75.30+36
The Zero Power Rule states that any non-zero number raised to the power of 0 is equal to 1. In this case, we have 7 raised to the power of 0. Therefore, the expression 7(−5.3)0+4⋅9 is equivalent to 1+4⋅9, which simplifies to 1+36. So the correct answer is 71+4⋅9.

75.3^0+36
The Zero Power Rule states that any non-zero number raised to the power of 0 is equal to 1. In this case, we have (-5.3) raised to the power of 0, which results in 1. Therefore, the expression 7(-5.3)0+4⋅9 is equivalent to 7(1)+4⋅9. Simplifying further, we get 7+36, which is equal to 43.
The correct answer is not provided in the given options.
To apply the Zero Power Rule, any number raised to the power of zero equals 1. Therefore, in the expression 7(-5.3)^0 + 4 * 9, (-5.3)^0 equals 1.
So, an equivalent expression would be:
7 * 1 + 4 * 9
Simplifying this expression gives us:
7 + 36
Therefore, the equivalent expression to 7(-5.3)^0 + 4 * 9 when applying the Zero Power Rule is 7 + 36, which is 43.
