What’s the solution to

2(1.6^0 + 7) - 4.9^0?

1 answer

The solution to the expression:

2(1.6^0 + 7) - 4.9^0

can be found by following the order of operations (also known as PEMDAS or BODMAS).

First, let's solve the exponent with 1.6^0 and 4.9^0. Any number raised to the power of 0 is always 1, so we can simplify:

2(1 + 7) - 1

Next, we simplify inside the parentheses:

2(8) - 1

Then, we multiply 2 by 8:

16 - 1

Finally, we subtract 1 from 16:

15

Therefore, the solution to the expression is 15.
