Answer 1

see below

Explanation:

1.) 26 times 26^8 = 26^1 * 26^8 = 26^(1+8) = 26^9

2.) (-5)^5/(-5)^-6 = (-5)^(5 - -6) = (-5)^(5+6) = (-5)^11

3.) 8^15 divided by 8^-3 = 8^(15 - -3) = 8^(15+3) = 8^18

4.) Which expressions are equivalent to 1? Select all that apply.

~-(5/8)^0 - (1) no

~-(-3141)^0 - (1) no

~1291^0 1 yes

~0^1 yes

~(1/3)^0 yes

~(-0.0008)^0 yes
