The correct Answer is:
To solve the assertion and reason provided in the question, we will analyze both statements step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion**: The assertion states that \(\left(\frac{5}{7}\right)^{0} = 1\). 2. **Understanding the Reason**: The reason given is that for any non-zero rational number \(x\), \(x^{0} = 1\). 3. **Applying the Reason to the Assertion**: We need to check if \(\frac{5}{7}\) is a non-zero rational number. Since both 5 and 7 are non-zero integers, \(\frac{5}{7}\) is indeed a non-zero rational number. 4. **Using the Exponent Rule**: According to the exponent rule, any non-zero number raised to the power of 0 is equal to 1. Therefore, since \(\frac{5}{7}\) is a non-zero rational number, we can apply this rule: \[ \left(\frac{5}{7}\right)^{0} = 1 \] 5. **Conclusion**: Since both the assertion and the reason are true, we conclude that the assertion \(\left(\frac{5}{7}\right)^{0} = 1\) is correct, and the reason provided correctly explains why it is true. ### Final Statement: Both the assertion and the reason are correct, and the reason is the correct explanation for the assertion. ---
