Answer:


\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{24 {x}^(3) {y}^(7)}}}}}

Explanation:


\sf{ ( - 6 {x}^(3) {y}^(5) ) * ( - 4 {y}^(2)) }

Multiply the numbers and variables separately


\longrightarrow{ \sf{( - 6 * ( - 4)) * {x}^(3) * {y}^(5) * {y}^(2) }}


\longrightarrow{ \sf{24 {x}^(3) * {y}^(5) * {y}^(2) }}

Add the powers of the variables with same base


\longrightarrow{ \sf{24 {x}^(3) {y}^(5 + 2) }}


\longrightarrow{ \sf{24 {x}^(3) {y}^(7)}}

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D
