Q. Which is equal to 5−85^{-8}?\newlineChoices:\newline(A) −(−5)8-(-5)^8\newline(B) (−5)8(-5)^8\newline(C) 158\frac{1}{5^8}\newline(D) −15−8-\frac{1}{5^{-8}}
  1. Understand 5−85^{-8}: Understand the expression 5−85^{-8}. 5−85^{-8} means 11 divided by 55 raised to the power of 88. Calculation: 5−8=1/585^{-8} = 1 / 5^8
  2. Calculate 5−85^{-8}: Match the expression 1/581 / 5^8 with the given choices.\newlineChoices are:\newline(A) −(−5)8-(-5)^8\newline(B) (−5)8(-5)^8\newline(C) 1/581/5^8\newline(D) −1/5−8-1/5^{-8}\newlineCorrect match is (C) 1/581/5^8.
