It is A. 2^12. The question asks for the value of 8 to the x-power. Divided by 2 to the y-power. the trick to solving this is to rewrite 8^x as 2^3x. so you will have 2^3x divided by 2^y. since the bases are now the same , you can subtract the exponents to get the result of 2^3x-y. since it is given the 3x-y is 12. your final answer is 2^12
