Apply the zero rule to create an equivalent expression to 4/3(-2+1^0)

Answer 1

To apply the zero rule, we just need to simplify the exponent with a base of 1 to 0 and then evaluate the expression.

Since any number (except 0) to the power of 0 is always equal to 1, the term 1^0 simplifies to 1.

Therefore, the expression becomes: 4/3(-2+1)

Now we can simplify the expression inside the parentheses by performing the addition:

4/3(-1)

Finally, we can apply the zero rule by multiplying 4/3 by -1:

-4/3
