Answer:

The equivalent expression is;


(1)/(x^(19))

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression;


((x^(-5))^4)/(x^(-1))

we want to simplify;


\begin{gathered} ((x^(-5))^4)/(x^(-1)) \\ =(x^(-5)^((4)))/(x^(-1)) \\ =(x^(-20))/(x^(-1)) \end{gathered}

Applying the rules of exponent;


\begin{gathered} =(x^(-20))/(x^(-1)) \\ =(1)/(x^(20))*(1)/(x^(-1)) \\ =(1)/(x^(20-1)) \\ =(1)/(x^(19)) \end{gathered}

Therefore, the equivalent expression is;


(1)/(x^(19))
