Answer

$6x^3\sqrt[]{x}$

Work Step by Step

Using the properties of radicals, then, \begin{array}{l} \sqrt[]{4x^7}+9x^2\sqrt[]{x^3}-5x\sqrt[]{x^5} \\= \sqrt[]{4x^6\cdot x}+9x^2\sqrt[]{x^2\cdot x}-5x\sqrt[]{x^4\cdot x} \\= 2x^3\sqrt[]{x}+9x^2\cdot x\sqrt[]{x}-5x\cdot x^2\sqrt[]{x} \\= 2x^3\sqrt[]{x}+9x^3\sqrt[]{x}-5x^3\sqrt[]{x} \\= 6x^3\sqrt[]{x} .\end{array}
