Answer

The simplified value is $ -128x^{19}y^{8} $.

Work Step by Step

The given expression is $= \left ( 4x^{2}y^{4} \right )^{2}\left ( -2x^{5}y^{0} \right )^{3} $ Clear the parentheses. $ = 16x^{4}y^{8} \times ( -8x^{15}y^{0} )$ Add the exponents of like terms. $ =-128x^{4+15}y^{8+0}$ $ =-128x^{19}y^{8} $.
