40
Answer:
[tex]20x^3[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the product of the expression
[tex]5x(4x^2)[/tex]
we must multiply both coefficients 5 and 4, and multiply the variables using the property:
[tex]x^m*x^n=x^{m+n}[/tex]⇒ when multiplying a variable with different exponents, these exponents must be added (Note: [tex]x=x^1[/tex])
So the product will be as follows
[tex]5x(4x^2)=(5*4)(x*x^2)=20(x*x^2)=20x^{1+2}=20x^3[/tex]
The answer is [tex]20x^3[/tex]
