Answer 2

Here are the answers to your questions:

1. **Which sentence includes a dependent clause?**
- **Answer:** She smiled as she opened the package. (The dependent clause is "as she opened the package.")

2. **Which option means “a group of words that has a subject and a predicate and is a complete sentence?”**
- **Answer:** independent clause

3. **Which sentence begins with a dependent clause?**
- **Answer:** When we go to school in the morning, we need to take our lunches and our backpacks. (The dependent clause is "When we go to school in the morning.")

4. **Which of the following describes the difference between a clause and a phrase?**
- **Answer:** A clause has a subject and a verb, but a phrase does not.

Answer 3

Let's apply the Zero Power Rule of Integer Exponents, which states that any non-zero number raised to the power of zero equals one.

1. **Solve \( 63^0 \)**
\[
63^0 = 1
\]

2. **Solve \( 2.3 + (-1.478)^0 \)**
\[
(-1.478)^0 = 1 \quad \text{(since any non-zero number raised to the power of zero is 1)}
\]
\[
2.3 + 1 = 3.3
\]

3. **Solve \( -4^0 \times 15 \)**
\[
-4^0 = -1 \quad \text{(since -4 is treated as a non-zero number, and } (-4)^0 = 1\text{)}
\]
\[
-1 \times 15 = -15
\]

4. **Create an equivalent expression to \( \frac{4}{3}(-2 + 1^0) \)**
\[
1^0 = 1
\]
\[
-2 + 1 = -1
\]
So the expression becomes:
\[
\frac{4}{3}(-1) = -\frac{4}{3}
\]

5. **Solve the expression \( 2(1.6^0 + 7) - 4.9^0 \)**
\[
1.6^0 = 1 \quad \text{and} \quad 4.9^0 = 1
\]
Thus, the expression simplifies to:
\[
2(1 + 7) - 1 = 2 \times 8 - 1 = 16 - 1 = 15
\]

### Summary of Answers:
1. \( 63^0 = 1 \)
2. \( 2.3 + (-1.478)^0 = 3.3 \)
3. \( -4^0 \times 15 = -15 \)
4. Equivalent expression: \( -\frac{4}{3} \)
5. \( 2(1.6^0 + 7) - 4.9^0 = 15 \)
