The Zero Power Rule of Integer Exponents states that any non-zero number raised to the power of zero equals one. In this case, we have \((-1.478)^0\).

So, we can simplify the expression:

\[ (-1.478)^0 = 1 \]

Now, substituting this back into the original expression:

\[ 2.3 + (-1.478)^0 = 2.3 + 1 \]

Now, we simply add:

\[ 2.3 + 1 = 3.3 \]

Therefore,

\[ 2.3 + (-1.478)^0 = 3.3 \]
