If x is 0, wouldn't that make it 2^0 being one

Answer:

Yes. If x=0, then 2ˣ = 0

Explanation:

I presume you mean 2ˣ

Any number raised to the power zero is 1 so if x = 0, 2⁰ = 1. There are debates about what 0⁰ evaluates to but I don' think you need to worry about that for this question

I hope I interpreted your question correctly.
