    Answer: One approach is to express

    8x

    2y

    so that the numerator and denominator are expressed with the same base. Since 2 and 8 are both powers of 2, substituting 23 for 8 in the numerator of

    8x

    2y

    gives

    (23) x

    2y

    which can be rewritten

    23x

    2y

    Since the numerator and denominator of have a common base, this expression can be rewritten as 2 (3x-y). In the question, it states that 3x-y=12, so one can substitute 12 for the exponent, 3x-y, which means that

    8x

    2y

    =212

    The final answer is A.
