| ① | Multiply each term of $ \left( \color{blue}{10-3x}\right) $ by each term in $ \left( 4-5x\right) $. $$ \left( \color{blue}{10-3x}\right) \cdot \left( 4-5x\right) = 40-50x-12x+15x^2 $$ |
| ② | Combine like terms: $$ 40 \color{blue}{-50x} \color{blue}{-12x} +15x^2 = 15x^2 \color{blue}{-62x} +40 $$ |
