To find which of the following options is equivalent to \( 18^{-5} \), let's analyze each option:

1. **\( 8^{5} \)**: This represents a positive exponent, which is not equivalent to a negative exponent.

2. **\( 8 \frac{1}{5} \)**: This is not the same as an exponent at all.

3. **\( 8^{-5} \)**: This is equivalent to \( \frac{1}{8^{5}} \), which is a valid expression for a negative exponent. However, it does not match \( 18^{-5} \).

4. **\( 5^{-8} \)**: This again represents a negative exponent but does not relate to \( 18^{-5} \) in any way.

None of the options match \( 18^{-5} \). It seems that you might want to rewrite it in various equivalent forms, such as \( \frac{1}{18^{5}} \), but from the given options, none are equivalent to \( 18^{-5} \). Please check for any errors in the provided responses.
