that will mean that $x$ is multiplying $A$ from the left, i.e. $xA$ with $x$ being a 1x3 row vector and $A$ a 3-by-3 matrix
next, we note that the second summation index $j$ is the second index of both $a_{ij}$ and $b_{kj}$
But that's not how summation for matrix multiplication works: one should be a column index, the other a row index
to fix that, note that $B^T$ has the same matrix elements as $B$ except with row and column index swapped
hence that summation can be regarded as $\sum_j a_{ij}b_{kj} = \sum_j (A)_{ij}(B^T)_{jk}=(AB^T)_{ik}$
and combining that with $x$ on the left gives $xAB^T$
that, at least, would be the interpretation of that summation as elements of a row vector
