Understanding Zero Exponent Property

The video tutorial explains the zero exponent property, which states that any non-zero base raised to the power of zero equals one. It provides a detailed explanation using the quotient property of exponents and demonstrates this concept with several examples. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of understanding that the zero exponent only applies to the base it is directly attached to, and not to any coefficients unless specified.

What assumption is made about variables when simplifying expressions with zero exponents?

• Variables can be zero.

• Variables are always negative.

• Variables are non-zero.

• Variables are always positive.
