To find the equivalent expression for x^3(2+y^5), you should distribute x^3 across the terms in the parentheses. Here's the correct distribution:
x^3 * 2 + x^3 * y^5
This simplifies to:
2x^3 + x^3y^5
This is the first option you provided. So, the equivalent expression is:
2x^3 + x^3y^5
In words: "2 x cubed plus x cubed y to the fifth power."
