For this case, we must simplify the following expression:


\sqrt [3] {- 125n ^ {12}}

By definition of properties of roots and powers we have:


\sqrt [n] {a ^ m} = a ^ {\frac {m} {n}}

In addition, we have to:


\sqrt [3] {- 125} = - 5

So:


\sqrt [3]{- 125n ^ {12}} = - 5n^ {\frac {12} {3}} = - 5n^ 4

Answer:


-5n ^ 4

Option B
