a: \(\frac12x^3\left(x^2-6x-10\right)=\frac12x^3\cdot x^2-\frac12x^3\cdot6x-\frac12x^3\cdot10\)
\(=\frac12x^5-3x^4-5x^3\)
b: \(-3x^2\left(5x^3-4x^2+3x-1\right)\)
\(=-3x^2\cdot5x^3+3x^2\cdot4x^2-3x^2\cdot3x+3x^2\cdot1\)
\(=-15x^5+12x^4-9x^3+3x^2\)
c: (x+8)(x-5)
\(=x^2-5x+8x-40\)
\(=x^2+3x-40\)
d: \(\left(2x-1\right)\left(3x^2-7x+5\right)\)
\(=6x^3-14x^2+10x-3x^2+7x-5\)
\(=6x^3-17x^2+17x-5\)
