Answer 2

step by step plz

Answer 3

This is a monomial times a monomial..
1st step. Multiply the real numbers. 5 * -2 = -10
2nd step. Write the letters down in alphabetical order xy
3rd step. Add the exponents for each variable. where there is a plain x it is actually to the first power so for the x's you have 1 + 2 = 3 so you have x^3
For the y's you have 2 + 3 = 5 so you have y^5

so the answer is -10x^3y^5
