To evaluate the expression \( 52 - (-3)^0 \):

  1. First, calculate \( (-3)^0 \). Any non-zero number raised to the power of 0 is 1. Therefore, \( (-3)^0 = 1 \).

  2. Now substitute back into the expression: \[ 52 - 1 \]

  3. Calculate \( 52 - 1 = 51 \).

The value of the expression \( 52 - (-3)^0 \) is 51, which is not one of the provided answers. It appears that there might be an issue with the options given. Would you like to double-check the expression or the provided answers?
