Answer:

[tex]2x^2(1-10x^3)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor  [tex]2x^2-20x^5[/tex]

Apply the exponent rule:  [tex]a^{b+c}=a^ba^c[/tex]

[tex]\implies 2x^2-20x^2x^3[/tex]

Rewrite 2 as 2 · 1 and 20 as 2 · 10:

[tex]\implies 2 \cdot 1x^2-2 \cdot 10x^2x^3[/tex]

Factor out common term [tex]2x^2[/tex]:

[tex]\implies 2x^2(1-10x^3)[/tex]
