solve this equation

Question

(12a^3)^0(14b)^2

Answer 1

To solve the expression \((12a^3)^0(14b)^2\), we will evaluate each part.

1. Anything raised to the power of 0 is equal to 1: \[ (12a^3)^0 = 1 \]

2. Now we evaluate \((14b)^2\): \[ (14b)^2 = 14^2 \cdot b^2 = 196b^2 \]

Now, we can combine both parts: \[ (12a^3)^0 (14b)^2 = 1 \cdot 196b^2 = 196b^2 \]

Thus, the final result is: \[ \boxed{196b^2} \]
