%28%284x%5E-3y%5E2%29%2F%28xy%5E-5%29%29%5E-2
Combine like term exponent in a manner that will yield positive exponents only
%28%284y%5E%28%282%2B5%29%29%29%2F%28x%5E%28%281%2B3%29%29%29%29%5E-2 = %28%284y%5E7%29%2Fx%5E4%29%5E-2
Get rid of the negative exponent, invert the fraction
Square 4 and multiply the exponents by 2
%28x%5E4%2F%284y%5E7%29%29%5E2 = x%5E8%2F%2816y%5E14%29
