1 answer

To determine which of the given expressions results in the answer of 1, we can evaluate each option based on the properties of exponents and arithmetic.

  1. \((-2.97)^0\)

    • Any non-zero number raised to the power of 0 is equal to 1.
    • Therefore, \((-2.97)^0 = 1\).
  2. \(13 - (7.42)^0\)

    • \((7.42)^0 = 1\).
    • Thus, \(13 - 1 = 12\), which is not 1.
  3. \(3(8^0)\)

    • \((8^0 = 1)\).
    • Therefore, \(3 \times 1 = 3\), which is not 1.
  4. \(50 + 90\)

    • This evaluates to \(140\), which is not 1.

Given these evaluations, the only expression that equals 1 is \((-2.97)^0\).

So, the correct answer is: \((-2.97)^0\).
