Answer:

The simplified form of the provided expression is 2^{-1}\ or\ \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided expression:

(2^3)(2^{-4})

Use the product rule of exponent:

a^m \cdot a^n=a^{m+n}

Now use the above formula to simplify the provided expression.

(2^3)(2^{-4})=2^{3+(-4)}

(2^3)(2^{-4})=2^{3-4}

(2^3)(2^{-4})=2^{-1}

Hence, the simplified form of the provided expression is 2^{-1}\ or\ \frac{1}{2}
