Which of the following shows the correct process of solving - 4(3 + 12 ^ 0) + 15 ^ 0 by generating an equivalent expression using the Zero Power Rule? (1 point)

- 4(3 + 12 ^ 9) + 15 ^ 9 = - 4(3 + 1) + 1 = - 4 * 4 + 1 = - 4 * 5 = - 20

O - 4(3 + 12 ^ 8) + 15 ^ 6 = - 4(3 + 1) + 1 = - 4 * 4 + 1 = - 16 + 1 = - 15

O - 4(3 + 12 ^ 6) + 15 ^ 0 = - 4(15) + 1 = - 60 + 1 = - 59

- 4(3 + 12 ^ 0) + 15 ^ 0 = - 4(15) + 15 = - 60 + 15 = - 45

The correct process of solving -4(3 + 12 ^ 0) + 15 ^ 0 by generating an equivalent expression using the Zero Power Rule is:

-4(3 + 12 ^ 0) + 15 ^ 0 = -4(3 + 1) + 1 = -4 * 4 + 1 = -16 + 1 = -15
