Question

is x to the 0 power = 1?

Answer 1

In most cases. If \(x=0\) then we have some problems.

Answer 2

Anything to the power of 0 is 1

Answer 3

ok thanks guys

Answer 4

Agent is right, except for when \(x=0\). Even complex numbers go to 1. \[0^0\] however is indeterminate.

Answer 5

ok i believe you have earned a medal thanks

Answer 6

i think \(\infty ^0\) is not defined is it @KingGeorge ?

Answer 7

@KingGeorge 's exception is an important one

Answer 8

But infinity isn't a number (techincally), and we're assuming (at least I was) that x is a number.

Answer 9

that is a good exception will keep in mind

Answer 10
