| ① | Multiply each term of $ \left( \color{blue}{2x^2-5x+5}\right) $ by each term in $ \left( x^2+9\right) $. $$ \left( \color{blue}{2x^2-5x+5}\right) \cdot \left( x^2+9\right) = 2x^4+18x^2-5x^3-45x+5x^2+45 $$ |
| ② | Combine like terms: $$ 2x^4+ \color{blue}{18x^2} -5x^3-45x+ \color{blue}{5x^2} +45 = 2x^4-5x^3+ \color{blue}{23x^2} -45x+45 $$ |
