Which of the following shows the correct process of solving −3^0+4.5?

5 answers

To solve this expression, we need to apply the order of operations. The correct process is as follows:

1. Begin with the exponent: -3^0. Any non-zero number raised to the power of zero is equal to 1. Hence, -3^0 equals -1.

2. Next, we have -1 + 4.5.

3. Finally, perform the addition: -1 + 4.5 equals 3.5.

Therefore, the correct process for solving −3^0+4.5 is -1 + 4.5, which equals 3.5.
