Simplify the expression. (x9) 0 (x7) 2

The number that is raised to the exponent 0 is always equal to one (1). Thus,

(x9) ^0 = 1

The exponent of the number that is further raised to another power is the product of the exponents.

(x7) ^2 = x^14

Multiplying the two calculated values will give us an answer of x^14.
