@AdamK

OpenStudy (adamk):

You sure it's written like that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes. its (z^8)^0z^5

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

Anything raised to a 0 power is 1, if you didn't know

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh thanks @luigi0210

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i think its z^40 ?

OpenStudy (adamk):

Now just compute (z^8)^5

OpenStudy (adamk):

Good job!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cool thanks adam

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

Nooo. \(\Large (z^8)^0 =1\) So 1\(\Large *z^5=?\)

OpenStudy (adamk):

Yeah, z^5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1z^5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Luigi0210

OpenStudy (adamk):

Yep, which is the same as z^5

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

Yup ^
