Answer

$\frac{4x}{y^2}$.

Work Step by Step

The given expression is $=\sqrt [3]{\frac{32x}{y^4}}\cdot \sqrt [3]{\frac{2x^2}{y^2}}$ Use the product rule. $=\sqrt [3]{\frac{32x}{y^4}\cdot \frac{2x^2}{y^2}}$ Multiply $=\sqrt [3]{\frac{64x^3}{y^6}}$ Factor the radicands as a perfect cube. $=\sqrt [3]{\frac{4^3x^3}{(y^2)^3}}$ Simplify. $=\frac{4x}{y^2}$.
