Answer:
\huge\boxed{\ x^2+3x-40}

My step-by-step explanation:

1. First thing we do is: Distribute

(x+8)(x−5)x

(x−5)+8(x−5)

2. Second thing:Distribute

x(x−5)+8(x−5)

x^2−5x+8(x−5)

3.Third thing: Distribute

x^2−5x+8(x−5)

x^2−5x+8x−40

4. Fourth thing: Combine like terms

x^2−5x+8x−40

x^2+3x−40

5.And finnaly we find: The solution

x^2+3x−40

Good Luck!
