Which of the following is an equivalent expression to 7/((- 5.3) ^ 0) + 4 * 9 when applying the Zero Power Rule?

7/17 + 4 * 9

7/1 + 4 * 9

+36

7/6 + 4 * 9

1 answer

The Zero Power Rule states that any non-zero number raised to the power of 0 is equal to 1. Therefore, (-5.3) ^ 0 is equal to 1.

So, the expression 7/((-5.3) ^ 0) + 4 * 9 becomes:

7/1 + 4 * 9

which simplifies to:

7 + 4 * 9

= 7 + 36

= 43

Therefore, the correct answer is "43".
