The given expression is:

rs(x^4 y^3)

This can be simplied as follows:

We know that rs(ab) can also be written as rs(a) . rs(b)

Thus, the given expression can be written as:

rs(x^4) . rs(y^3)

==> x^2 . rs(y^2 . y)

==> x^2 . rs(y^2). rs(y)

==> x^2 . y . rs(y)

Thus, the simplified form of the expresion is:

x^2 . y . rs(y)
