Answer:

  • quotient of powers
  • power of a power
  • negative exponent

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

  • ( -8⁴)⁻⁵ / ( -8⁶)

Evaluating:

  • ( -8⁴)⁻⁵ / ( -8⁶)  =
  • ( -8⁴ˣ⁻⁵) / ( -8⁶) =           ⇒ Power of a power (nᵃ)ᵇ = nᵃᵇ
  • (-8⁻²⁰)/( -8⁶) =
  • 8⁻²⁰⁻⁶ =                        ⇒ Quotient of powers nᵃ/nᵇ = nᵃ⁻ᵇ
  • 8⁻²⁶ =
  • 1/8²⁶                            ⇒ Negative exponent n⁻ᵃ = 1 / nᵃ

Used rules:

  • quotient of powers
  • power of a power
  • negative exponent

Answer:

B-quotient of powers

C-power of a power

E-negative exponent
