I am not entirely sure what kind of equation you want to solve. Anyway, if an expression has an exponent of zero, the entire expression is usually equal to 1 (unless you raise zero to the power zero; that's undefined). Perhaps that can help you simplify the expression. For example: if you have an equation such as
(x+y+z)0 + 5x + 3 = 10
The entire left expression, (x+y+z)0 can be replaced with 1, thus simplifying the equation.

Why do you equate the equation to zero?
Not all equations are equated to zero, but usually we set a function equal to zero if we want to find its x intercepts, or where the graph of the function crosses the x axis.
Why the properties using zero exponents and negative exponents specify that the bases be nonzero numbers?
Because the expressions are undefined for base = 0.
Can every number be written in scientific notation?
Yes, except for zero. Numbers larger than 1 have positive exponents, and numbers between 0 and 1 have negative exponents. Negative numbers would just have a '-' in front.
What are numbers called that are used in exponents?
The numbers called that are used in exponents can be called as a power of a number. The power or exponent can be positive , negative , zero .
Why cant equations of vertical lines be written in slope-intercept form but equations of horizontal lines can?
For vertical lines, when you try to figure out the slope, you get zero in the denominator - in other words, a division by zero.

What is the value of 0 to the power of -1?
1
When is an exponent positive?
When it is anything above zero. Negative exponents are below zero and zero is nuetral.
Can you get zero using exponents?
No. Even a number with an exponent of zero equals one. There is no way an exponent on a number will make it zero.
Why the properties using zero exponents and negative exponents specify that the bases be nonzero numbers?
Because the expressions are undefined for base = 0.
Which of the following systems of equations has no solution?
If they are quadratic equations then if their discriminant is less than zero then they have no solutions

How many solutions does the system of linear equations shown have?
As there is no system of equations shown, there are zero solutions.
Can you write 1 in exponents?
Sure.1 = 1raised to any power including zero

How do you write Exponents in Standard Form?
you multiply for example 2to the 5th power =2x2x2x2x2Writing exponents in standard form is simple and easy to do. For every exponent you have to put a zero.
