(1 point)
Responses
A. Because the numerator has an exponent of 8 and the denominator has an exponent of 4, when you divide you are left with x squared
B. Because there are 8 factors of x in the numerator and 4 factors of x in the denominator, when the x's cancel you are left with x to the negative 4 power
C. Because there are 8 factors of x in the numerator and 4 factors of x in the denominator, when the x's cancel you are left with x to the 4th power
D. Because when you are dividing with exponents, you should add the exponents so that you are left with x to the 12th power
