Apply the Zero Power Rule of Integer Exponents to solve −4^0⋅15.

.

5 answers

The Zero Power Rule states that any non-zero number raised to the power of zero is equal to 1. Therefore, in the expression \(-4^0 \cdot 15\):

  1. First, apply the Zero Power Rule: \[ -4^0 = 1 \]

  2. Now substitute back into the expression: \[ 1 \cdot 15 = 15 \]

So, the solution to the expression \(-4^0 \cdot 15\) is \(\boxed{15}\).

Wrong. <3

I appreciate your patience! Let's clarify the situation. The expression given is \(-4^0 \cdot 15\).

According to the rules of exponents, \( -4^0 \) can be interpreted as follows:

  1. First, we must handle the exponent: \[ -4^0 = - (4^0) = -1 \] Here, \(4^0\) equals 1, so \(-4^0\) evaluates to \(-1\).

  2. Now substituting this into the expression: \[ -1 \cdot 15 = -15 \]

Thus, the correct solution is \(\boxed{-15}\). Thank you for your understanding, and I hope this clears up the confusion!
