It's not 1 that is exactly the problem. It is also 0. And perhaps - 1 although that is a lot trickier than the other two.
Let's start with one. It give 1^1 = 1 for a power of 1. It gives 1^2 = 1 * 1 for a power of 2. It will give 1^100000 = 1 for a power of 100000.
So the base can be 1 but it is known that any power won't change it's value.
The same can be said of 0. 0^1000 = 0^1 = 0. 0^0 is really a bad dude. You won't learn about that for awhile.
(-1)^11 is different from (-1)^10. The first gives -1 and the second gives 1. So you have to be careful with -1.
There is nothing wrong with (1/4)^3. The power of three and the base of 1/4 are fine. The answer is (1/4)*(1/4) * (1/4) = 1/64 which is perfectly good answer.
It works for negatives too. (-1/2)^3 = - 1/8
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
We can divide 8/2 to find out that 4 slices are on each pizza, each person eats one piece, so we can then divide 20/4=5

The equation of a line is y = mx+b, where m is the slope. In this equation m = 3, so the slope is upward and to the right, above the 45-degree angle. Only graph J fits this description.
Answer:
(-3, -6, 0)
Step-by-step explanation:
3(-1) = -3
3(-2) = -6
3(0) = 0
