Question

Solve the expression 2(1.6^0+7)−4.9^0 .

Answer 1

To solve this expression, we'll first calculate the values of the exponentials involved:

1.6^0 = 1 (Any number raised to the power of 0 equals 1)
4.9^0 = 1

Now, let's replace these values in the expression:

2(1 + 7) - 1

Inside the parentheses, we perform the addition:

2(8) - 1

Then we multiply:

16 - 1

Finally, we subtract:

15

Therefore, the solution to the expression 2(1.6^0 + 7) - 4.9^0 is 15.
