I would greatly appreciate it if you were to solve it step-by-step, if it's too much work then don't worry about it. Thank you.

Answer 1

The answer is 1, since anything to the 0th power is 1. You don't even need to simplify!

Answer 2

Here is the handiest chart that helped me through College Algebra, with exponents at least. I am more of a Humanities girl myself.
