Answer:

-50

Explanation:

Luckily for us this one is very simple.

(-5)(10) can also be written as
-5*10 or with any other multiplicative operator (a symbol that represents multiplication). So this becomes very simple multiplication.

We know that when we multiply a positive number by a negative, the result will be negative - and we also know that 5 times 10 is 50. So our result will be:
(-5)(10) = -50
