### Algebraic Fraction Expressions

Below are a series of algebraic fraction expressions that involve exponents and variables. These exercises will help you understand how to simplify complex algebraic fractions.

#### 4. Simplify the expression:
\[
\frac{(a^{-5}b^4)^{-4}}{2a^2b^4 \cdot 2a^3}
\]

Here, you need to simplify an expression that involves negative exponents and multiplication of different terms.

---

#### 5. Simplify the expression:
\[
\frac{2x^4 y^2}{(2x^{-3} y^{-4} \cdot 2x^3 y^4)^{-3}}
\]

This fraction incorporates both positive and negative exponents in the numerator and denominator. You'll need to apply the rules of exponents to simplify it.

---

#### 6. Simplify the expression:
\[
\left(\frac{q^0 r^5}{p^{-4} q^{ -1} r^4 \cdot p^3}\right)^0
\]

Note that any non-zero number or variable raised to the power of 0 is 1. Use this rule to simplify the given expression.

---

#### 7. Simplify the expression:
\[
\frac{q r p^5}{2 p^{-5} q^5 r^2 \cdot (2 p^4 q^3 r^{-4})^{-4}}
\]

This expression combines multiple variables with both positive and negative exponents. You will need to apply the rules of exponents and multiplication to reach the simplest form.

### Explanation of Graphs and Diagrams:
In the above problems, there are no graphs or diagrams present. Each expression involves algebraic manipulation and understanding of exponents.
