To simplify the expression (1)/(2)(9-7^(0)+(-29)^(0)), we need to evaluate the exponents of 7^0 and (-29)^0. Any number raised to the power of 0 is equal to 1. Therefore, 7^0 = 1 and (-29)^0 = 1.

Using this information, we can simplify the expression as follows:

(1)/(2)(9-7^(0)+(-29)^(0))
= (1)/(2)(9-1+1)
= (1)/(2)(9)
= (1)/(2)(9)
= 1/2 * 9
= 9/2

Therefore, the equivalent expression is not provided in the answer choices.
