Answer:
c; 1 / (a^12)(b^8)
Step-by-step explanation:
when the exponent is outside a number you multiply the outside exponent by the inside exponent
so far after multiplying exponents you have
a^-12 / b^8
but you must put the 12 on the bottom so that all exponents can be positive
1 / (a^12)(b^8)
#1) x-8= -12
#2) 15+k= 2
#3) x/-7= -20
#4) (5/8)(x)= -20
The / in #2 means to divide and the ( ) mean to multiply
