ANSWER

{( - 2)}^{ - 3} =- \frac{1}{ 8}

EXPLANATION

We want to simplify;

{( - 2)}^{ - 3}

Recall that,

{a}^{ - m}  =  \frac{1}{ {a}^{m} }

{( - 2)}^{ - 3}  =  \frac{1}{{( - 2)}^{ 3}}

We multiply out to get,

{( - 2)}^{ - 3}  = \frac{1}{{- 2} \times  - 2 \times  - 2}

{( - 2)}^{ - 3}  =  \frac{1}{ - 8}

The correct choice is B.
