$8x^5$

We start with the given expression: $(2x)^3x^2$ We simplify using the order of operations: First, we simplify powers. To raise a product to a power, we raise each factor to the power and multiply: $2^3x^3x^2$ Then, we multiply. To multiply powers with the same base, we add the exponents: $8x^{3+2}=8x^5$
