Answer Details
The underlined letters in the word "exhale" represent the consonant sound /ks/. The only option that also contains this sound is "exhaust."
To be more specific, both "exhale" and "exhaust" contain the consonant sounds /ks/ and /h/, but the other two options do not. "Explain" contains the consonant sounds /ks/ and /pl/, while "excuse" contains the consonant sounds /ks/ and /s/.
