| ① | Multiply each term of $ \left( \color{blue}{3-2i}\right) $ by each term in $ \left( -4+2i\right) $. $$ \left( \color{blue}{3-2i}\right) \cdot \left( -4+2i\right) = -12+6i+8i-4i^2 $$ |
| ② | Combine like terms: $$ -12+ \color{blue}{6i} + \color{blue}{8i} -4i^2 = -4i^2+ \color{blue}{14i} -12 $$ |
