\[ \frac{2^{n+4} - 2 \cdot 2^{n}}{2 \cdot 2^{n+3}} + 2^{-3} \ \text{ is equal to:} \]

  • A.2^(n+1)
  • B.-2^(n+1)+1/8
  • C.9/8-2^(n)
  • D.1

Answer: D

Factor \( 2^{n} \) out of the fraction.

\[ \frac{2^{n+4} - 2 \cdot 2^{n}}{2 \cdot 2^{n+3}} = \frac{2^{n}(16 - 2)}{2^{n}(16)} = \frac{14}{16} = \frac{7}{8} \]

\[ \frac{7}{8} + 2^{-3} = \frac{7}{8} + \frac{1}{8} = 1 \]

The \( 2^{n} \) cancels entirely, so the answer does not depend on \( n \).
