Evaluate the expressions.

(-6)^0
2(5/9)^0

1 answer

To evaluate the expressions, we need to remember the property that any non-zero number raised to the power of zero is equal to 1.

  1. For the first expression \((-6)^0\): \[ (-6)^0 = 1 \]

  2. For the second expression \(2(5/9)^0\): Since \((5/9)^0 = 1\): \[ 2(5/9)^0 = 2 \cdot 1 = 2 \]

Therefore, the evaluations are:

  • \((-6)^0 = 1\)
  • \(2(5/9)^0 = 2\)
