Evaluate the following Expressions
a 11 to the 0th power
B 11 squared / 11 squared
C are the answers to Parts A & B the same, explain why or why not
anything^0 = 1 , unless you have 0^0 , which is undefined
anything/anything = 1, unless "anything" is zero, then it is indeterminate
To evaluate the expressions, let's go step by step:
A) To evaluate 11 to the 0th power (11^0), we need to understand that any number (except 0) raised to the power of 0 is equal to 1. Therefore, the answer to 11^0 is 1.
B) In this expression, we have 11 squared (11^2) divided by 11 squared again (11^2). To calculate, we need to find the value of both 11^2 expressions.
To calculate 11 squared (11^2), we simply multiply 11 by itself: 11 * 11 = 121.
Thus, the expression becomes: 121 / 121. When dividing any number by itself, the answer is always 1.
C) Are the answers to Parts A and B the same? Yes, the answers to both parts are equal to 1. This is because any number raised to the power of 0 is always 1, and dividing any number by itself results in 1.
