[tex]k^{-4}=\dfrac{1}{256}\\\\k^{-4}=\dfrac{1}{4^4}\\\\k^{-4}=4^{-4}\Rightarrow \boxed{k=4}\to\boxed{B.}\\\\\text{But k=-4 is solution too, because}:\\\\(-4)^{-4}=\dfrac{1}{(-4)^4}=\dfrac{1}{256}\\\\\text{Therefore the solution is 4 and -4}\to\boxed{B.\ and\ C.}\\\\Used:\\\\a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}[/tex]
