Given:


4^0, (-2)^0,\left((1)/(3)\right)^0, 9^0

To find:

The statement that describes what these four powers have in common.

Solution:

We know that,


x^0=1

where, x is any real number.

Using the above property, we get


4^0=1


(-2)^0=1


\left((1)/(3)\right)^0=1


9^0

Therefore, all the powers have a value of 1 because the exponent is zero.
