Answer:

-8r^6y^5.

Explanation:

In order to find the product, we multiply the coefficients and then add the powers of the same variable.

Coefficient of -2r^5y^2: -2

Coefficient of 4ry^3: 4

Power of r: 5 + 1 = 6

Power of y: 2 + 3 = 5

Product: -2 * 4 = -8

r^6 * y^5 = -8r^6y^5

Therefore, the product of -2r^5y^2 and 4ry^3 is -8r^6y^5.
