To simplify the expression \( (x^3)(x^5) \), you can use the property of exponents that states when you multiply two powers with the same base, you add the exponents:

\[
x^a \cdot x^b = x^{a+b}
\]

In this case, \( a = 3 \) and \( b = 5 \):

\[
(x^3)(x^5) = x^{3+5} = x^8
\]

Thus, the simplified expression is:

\[
x^8
\]
