To determine which expression results in the answer of 1, let's evaluate each option.

1. \( 3(80) \)
- This expression equals \( 240 \), not 1.

2. \( 3(8^0) \)
- \( 8^0 = 1 \) (any non-zero number raised to the power of 0 is 1), so \( 3(1) = 3 \), not 1.

3. \( 50 + 90 \)
- This equals \( 140 \), not 1.

4. \( 5^0 + 9^0 \)
- \( 5^0 = 1 \) and \( 9^0 = 1 \), so \( 1 + 1 = 2 \), not 1.

5. \( (-2.97)^0 \)
- \( (-2.97)^0 = 1 \) (again, any non-zero number raised to the power of 0 is 1).

6. \( 13 - (7.42)^0 \)
- \( (7.42)^0 = 1 \), so \( 13 - 1 = 12 \), not 1.

The only expression that results in 1 is:

**\((-2.97)^0\)**.
