Which of the following is an equivalent expression to
7
+4•9 when applying the (-5.3)°
Zero Power Rule? (1 point)
The Zero Power Rule states that any number (except zero) raised to the power of zero is equal to 1. Therefore, when applying the Zero Power Rule, any expression with a number raised to the power of zero can be replaced with 1.
In this case, the expression 4•9 is equivalent to 36 by performing the multiplication. However, when applying the Zero Power Rule to the expression 36, it remains unchanged since there is no number raised to the power of zero in the expression.
Therefore, the expression 7 + 4•9 remains unchanged when applying the Zero Power Rule.
To answer this question using the Zero Power Rule, we need to understand what the Zero Power Rule is and then apply it to the given expression.
The Zero Power Rule states that any non-zero number raised to the power of zero is equal to 1. In other words, any number (except zero) raised to the power of zero simplifies to 1.
Now let's apply the Zero Power Rule to the given expression:
7 + 4 * 9
Here we don't have any exponents, so we can't apply the Zero Power Rule directly. However, the Zero Power Rule allows us to simplify any expression that contains the power of zero. In this case, we can simplify the expression 4 * 9 to 36 first:
7 + 36
Now we have a simplified expression without any powers. Therefore, the equivalent expression to 7 + 4 * 9, when applying the Zero Power Rule, is simply:
7 + 36
which equals 43.
The Zero Power Rule states that any number (except zero) raised to the power of zero equals 1.
So, in this case, we can apply the Zero Power Rule to the expression 4•9.
4 • 9 = 36
Therefore, an equivalent expression to 7 + 4•9 when applying the Zero Power Rule is:
7 + 36
