I love this kind of question because could be solved in a snap , using your math skill
Now, first we do know that g is negative and it is a fraction
and when we do have a fraction and it is raised to a power the fraction becomes smaller and smaller than the original value. and the answer would be A
But we do not know anything og h but is positive. We do not know if it is even or odd
if we have a fraction such as - 1/2 and we raise it to 2 B will be greater and positive. But if the power is odd botth are negative but A will be greater than B
D is the answer
Think always conceptually before testing numbers. The process will be always faster
