#8/x^6#

Explanation:

we have

#(2y^0)/(x^(-1))^(-4)=(2x^2)/x^4=2/x^2#
Now we get

#(2/x^2)^3=2^3/x^6=8/x^6#

#\frac{8}{x^6}#

Explanation:

Given that

#(\frac{2y^0\cdot x^2}{(x^{-1})^{-4}})^3#

#( \frac{2(1)\cdot x^2}{x^{-1\times -4} ))^3#

#=(\frac{2x^2}{x^4})^3#

#=(\frac{2}{x^{4-2}})^3#

#=(2/x^2)^3#

#=\frac{2^3}{(x^2)^3}#

#=\frac{8}{x^6}#
