suter [353]

Answer:

The correct option is option (3) 4 ÷ 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression in terms of m and n is:

$F(m,n)=[\frac{2m^{-1}n^{5}}{3m^{0}n^{4}}]^{2}$

Exponent rule of division:

$a^{x}\div a^{y}=a^{x-y}$

Compute the value of the expression for m = -5 and n = 3 as follows:

$F(m,n)=[\frac{2m^{-1}n^{5}}{3m^{0}n^{4}}]^{2}$

$F(-5,3)=[\frac{2\csdot (-5)^{-1}\cdot (3)^{5}}{3\cdot (-5)^{0}\cdot (3)^{4}}]^{2}$

$=\{\frac{2}{3}\times [(-5)^{-1-0}\times (3)^{5-4}}]\}^{2}\\\\=\{\frac{2}{3}\times \frac{-1}{5}\times 3\}^{2}\\\\=\{-\frac{2}{5}\}^{2}\\\\=\frac{4}{25}$

Thus, the correct option is option (3) 4 ÷ 25.
