Answer:

The product of
2xy\: and\: 3xy+5y-xy^2 is
\mathbf{6x^2y^2+10xy^2-2x^2y^3}

Option D is correct answer.

Explanation:

We need to find Which expression represents the product of
2xy\: and\: 3xy+5y-xy^2

So, we need to multiply both expressions:


(2xy) ( 3xy+5y-xy^2)

We will multiply 2xy with each term inside the bracket


=2xy(3xy)+2xy(5y)-2xy(xy^2)

The same variables are multiplied and their powers are added i.e.
a^m.a^n=a^(m+n)

The constants are multiplied with the constants.


=2(3)x^(1+1)y^(1+1)+2(5)xy^(1+1)-2x^(1+1)y^(1+2)\\=6x^2y^2+10xy^2-2x^2y^3

So, the product of
2xy\: and\: 3xy+5y-xy^2 is
\mathbf{6x^2y^2+10xy^2-2x^2y^3}

Option D is correct answer.
