C

D

Let’s simplify the expression . The double negative cancels out giving us:

So the correct answer is:

C .

Let’s break down why this works! The negative sign in the denominator flips the fraction when you move it up, and the negative exponent indicates that you can move to the numerator as . It’s like a little magic trick with numbers!

For your next challenge, remember to carefully track negative signs and exponents. They can sometimes play hide-and-seek in equations, leading to mix-ups! Always simplify each part step-by-step to avoid those pesky mistakes.
