Hey can you please help me posted picture of question
Lorico [155]
This is a TRUE statement. 

Consider the following example:

5 can also be written as 5x^{0}. Any variable raised to power 0 is equal to 1. So x raised to power 0 is equivalent to multiplying by 1, it leaves the expression/number unchanged.
