Answer

-28$x^{3}$$y^{5}$

Work Step by Step

(-4x$y^{2}$)(7$x^{2}$$y^{3}$) = Remove parentheses. -4x$y^{2}$ $\times$ 7$x^{2}$$y^{3}$ = Group similar terms. (-4 $\times$ 7) $\times$ (x $\times$ $x^{2}$ ) $\times$ ($y^{2}$ $\times$ $y^{3}$) = Simplify. -28 $\times$ $x^{3}$ $\times$ $y^{5}$ = -28$x^{3}$$y^{5}$
