Show work, someone me, i'm confused still on this concept.

choice C) -15x^4y



Explanation:

The coefficients are -3 and 5. They are the numbers to the left of the variable terms
Multiply the coefficients to get -3*5 = -15. So -15 is the coefficient in the answer

Multiply the x terms to get x^3 times x = x^(3+1) = x^4. Notice the exponents are being added

Do the same for the y terms as well: y^2 times y^(-1) = y^(2+(-1)) = y^(2-1) = y^1 = y

So we have a final coefficient of -15, the x terms simplify to x^4 and the y terms simplify to just y

Put this all together and we end up with -15x^4y which is what choice C is showing

Idon’t know what the answer is i wish i could
