the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

y = 5x + 3 is in this form with slope m = 5

To decrease the slope we require a smaller, positive value for m

y = x + 3 has m = 1 which is less than 5 and positive

y = x + 3 is less steep than y = 5x + 3

$\bf \cfrac{(-4x^2)(2x^{-2}y)^3}{(16x^5)(4y^3)^2}\implies \cfrac{(-4x^2)(2^3x^{-2\cdot 3}y^3)}{(16x^5)(4^2y^{3\cdot 2})}\implies \cfrac{(-4x^2)(8x^{-6}y^3)}{(16x^5)(16y^6)} \\\\\\ \cfrac{-32x^{2-6}y^3}{256x^5y^6}\implies -\cfrac{x^{-4} y^3}{8x^5y^6}\implies -\cfrac{1}{8x^5x^{4}y^6y^{-3}}\implies -\cfrac{1}{8x^{5+4}y^{6-3}} \\\\\\ -\cfrac{1}{8x^9y^3}$
