| ① | Multiply each term of $ \left( \color{blue}{2x-9}\right) $ by each term in $ \left( -2x+3\right) $. $$ \left( \color{blue}{2x-9}\right) \cdot \left( -2x+3\right) = -4x^2+6x+18x-27 $$ |
| ② | Combine like terms: $$ -4x^2+ \color{blue}{6x} + \color{blue}{18x} -27 = -4x^2+ \color{blue}{24x} -27 $$ |
