Answer:

B)
(-2)^(3)

Explanation:

Given Quotient :


((-2)^4)/(-2)

We will use the property of exponents to simplify the quotient.

Applying quotient rule of exponents which can be given as:


(a^x)/(a^y)=a^(x-y)

We have


((-2)^4)/(-2)

Any number without an exponent is known to have power of 1.

Thus the quotient can be written as:


((-2)^4)/((-2)^1)

Applying quotient rule.


(-2)^(4-1)


(-2)^(3) (Answer)
