5xy^(1/2)

Explanation:

The square roof of the products is the same as the product of the square roots, so we can rewrite this as

color(red)(sqrt25)*color(blue)(sqrt(x^2))*color(orchid)(sqrt(y))

This simplifies to

color(red)(5)color(blue)(x)color(orchid)(sqrty)

Which can be rewritten as

color(red)(5)color(blue)(x)color(orchid)(y^(1/2))

Hope this helps!
