| ① | Multiply each term of $ \left( \color{blue}{4-2i}\right) $ by each term in $ \left( 5+5i\right) $. $$ \left( \color{blue}{4-2i}\right) \cdot \left( 5+5i\right) = 20+20i-10i-10i^2 $$ |
| ② | Combine like terms: $$ 20+ \color{blue}{20i} \color{blue}{-10i} -10i^2 = -10i^2+ \color{blue}{10i} +20 $$ |
