Explanation:
To find the value of x⁰, we need to understand the concept of exponentiation.
- When a number is raised to the power of 0, it always equals 1. This is true for any number except 0.
Therefore, the correct statement is:
x⁰ = 1
The other statements are incorrect:
- A: x⁰ = 1/x - This is not true. x⁰ is always equal to 1, not 1/x.
- B: x⁰ = x - This is not true. x⁰ is always equal to 1, not x.
- C: x⁰ = 0 - This is not true. x⁰ is always equal to 1, not 0.
Therefore, the correct answer is D: x⁰ = 1.

Indian Industries Hit Hard by Globalisation:
There are several Indian industries that have been affected by globalisation, but the one industry that has been hit particularly hard is toy making.
Reasons for the impact:
- Increased competition: With the advent of globalisation, Indian toy manufacturers face tough competition from international players who are able to offer a wider range of products at competitive prices.
- Changing consumer preferences: Globalisation has exposed Indian consumers to a variety of imported toys, leading to a shift in their preferences towards these products.
- Quality and safety standards: International toys often adhere to higher quality and safety standards, making it difficult for Indian manufacturers to compete in terms of product quality.
- Lack of technological advancements: Many Indian toy manufacturers still rely on traditional manufacturing processes, while international competitors have embraced advanced technologies for production and design.
Consequences of globalisation on the toy making industry:
- Decline in domestic demand: As Indian consumers increasingly opt for imported toys, the demand for locally made toys has significantly decreased.
- Closure of small-scale manufacturers: Many small-scale toy manufacturers have been forced to shut down operations due to their inability to compete with larger international players.
- Job losses: The decline in the toy making industry has resulted in job losses for many workers, especially those employed in small-scale manufacturing units.
- Negative impact on the economy: The decline of the toy making industry has had a negative impact on the Indian economy in terms of reduced employment opportunities and revenue generation.
Overall, the toy making industry in India has been severely impacted by globalisation, leading to a decline in domestic demand, closure of small-scale manufacturers, job losses, and negative consequences for the economy.
