To find an expression equivalent to \( x^3(2 + y^5) \), we can distribute \( x^3 \) through the parentheses:
\[
x^3(2 + y^5) = x^3 \cdot 2 + x^3 \cdot y^5 = 2x^3 + x^3y^5
\]
Therefore, the equivalent expression is:
**2x^3 + x^3y^5**
This corresponds to the response:
**2x3 + x3y5**
So, the correct answer is:
**2 x cubed plus x cubed y superscript 5 baseline**.
