Answer 1

To determine which expression evaluates to 1, let's analyze each option:

1. \( 3(8^0) \):

   • \( 8^0 = 1 \), so \( 3(8^0) = 3 \times 1 = 3 \).

2. \( (-2.97)^0 \):

   • Any non-zero number raised to the power of 0 equals 1, so \( (-2.97)^0 = 1 \).

3. \( 50 + 90 + 5^0 + 9^0 \):

   • \( 5^0 = 1 \) and \( 9^0 = 1 \), so this simplifies to \( 50 + 90 + 1 + 1 = 142 \).

4. \( 13 - (7.42)^0 \):

   • \( (7.42)^0 = 1 \), so \( 13 - (7.42)^0 = 13 - 1 = 12 \).

Out of these evaluations, the only one that results in 1 is:

Answer: \( (-2.97)^0 \) which equals 1.
