Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rule of logarithms

• [tex]log_{b}[/tex] x = n ⇔ x = [tex]b^{n}[/tex]

Given

[tex]log_{x}[/tex] ([tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] ) = - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex], then

[tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] = [tex]x^{-\frac{3}{2} }[/tex]

Square both sides

[tex]\frac{1}{64}[/tex] = [tex]x^{-3}[/tex]

[tex]4^{-3}[/tex] = [tex]x^{-3}[/tex] ⇒ x = 4 → B
