Answer 2

`-24a^3b^7`

Explanation:

We are given the following expression and we are to find its product:

`(3a^2b^4)(-8ab^3)`

Here, we need to recall the the product rule according to which the exponents are added when you multiply two powers that have the same base.

So here the powers of
`a` and
`b` will be added to their powers to give:

`(3a^2b^4)(-8ab^3)` =
`-24a^((2+1))b^((4+3))` =
`-24a^3b^7`

Therefore, the product of the given expression is
`-24a^3b^7`.
