-120x^8y^7

To simplify the expression, you can use the product rule of exponents, which states that when you multiply two terms with the same base, you add the exponents.

Here, we have:

-12x^5y^2y(10x^3y^4)

= -12 * 10 * x^5 * x^3 * y^2 * y^5 (using the product rule to simplify y^2 * y^4 to y^6)

= -120x^8y^7 (using the product rule to simplify x^5 * x^3 to x^8)

Therefore, the simplified expression is -120x^8y^7.
