The simplified expression of
$4 x \cdot (1)/(x^(-5)) \cdot x^(-3) is
4x^3.

Solution:

Given expression is
4 x \cdot (1)/(x^(-5)) \cdot x^(-3).

To simplify the given expression.


$\Rightarrow4 x \cdot (1)/(x^(-5)) \cdot x^(-3)

Using exponent rule:
(1)/(a^(-m))=a^m


$\Rightarrow4x \cdot x^(5).x^(-3)

Using another exponent rule:
a^m \cdot a^n=a^(m+n)


$\Rightarrow4x \cdot x^(5-3)


$\Rightarrow4x \cdot x^(2)

Using exponent rule:
a^m \cdot a^n=a^(m+n)


$\Rightarrow4x^(1+2)


$\Rightarrow4x^3

Hence the simplified expression of
$4 x \cdot (1)/(x^(-5)) \cdot x^(-3) is
4x^3.
