Solution
To multiply algebraic expressions, we use commutative and associative laws along with the law of indices, \[a^m \times a^n = a^{m + n}\],wherever applicable.
We have:
\[\left( - 5xy \right) \times \left( - 3 x^2 yz \right)\]
\[ = \left\{ \left( - 5 \right) \times \left( - 3 \right) \right\} \times \left( x \times x^2 \right) \times \left( y \times y \right) \times z\]
\[ = 15 \times \left( x^{1 + 2} \right) \times \left( y^{1 + 1} \right) \times z\]
\[ = 15 x^3 y^2 z\]
Thus, the answer is \[15 x^3 y^2 z\].
