Answer
The value of the expression \( -3^{0} \) is 1.
1Step 1: Examine the Exponent
The exponent here is 0. According to the properties of exponents, any number (except zero) to the power of 0 is always 1.
2Step 2: Apply the Exponent
The base, -3, is raised to the power 0, so the expression is evaluated to 1.
