Answer:

(d) 1

Explanation:

You want the value of (-14^0)^-2.

Order of operations

When evaluating this expression, you start with the contents of the parentheses. That includes an exponential term, so it is evaluated first.

(-14^0)^-2

= (-(14^0))^-2 = (-1)^-2

Now, the outside exponent is evaluated.

= 1/((-1)(-1)) = 1/1 = 1

The value of the expression is 1.
