| ① | Multiply each term of $ \left( \color{blue}{-8-2i}\right) $ by each term in $ \left( -3+5i\right) $. $$ \left( \color{blue}{-8-2i}\right) \cdot \left( -3+5i\right) = 24-40i+6i-10i^2 $$ |
| ② | Combine like terms: $$ 24 \color{blue}{-40i} + \color{blue}{6i} -10i^2 = -10i^2 \color{blue}{-34i} +24 $$ |
