To evaluate the equation \( 7 - 4 \cdot 7349^{\sqrt{}} = 7 \), we first need to interpret what \( \sqrt{} \) represents. It seems there is some confusion regarding the presence and meaning of \(\sqrt{}\).

Let's simplify this. The equation can be rewritten as:

\[
7 - 4 \cdot 7349^x = 7
\]

If we isolate \( 4 \cdot 7349^x \):

\[
7 - 7 = 4 \cdot 7349^{\sqrt{}} \implies 0 = 4 \cdot 7349^{\sqrt{}}
\]

For this statement to be true, \( 4 \cdot 7349^{\sqrt{}} \) must equal zero. However, since \( 7349^{\sqrt{}} \) is a positive number (assuming \( \sqrt{} \) is a real number), the expression \( 4 \cdot 7349^{\sqrt{}} \) cannot equal zero. Thus, the original equation is false.

Therefore, the correct response is:

**False. When applying the Quotient Property, the final exponent is not 1.**
