| ① | Multiply each term of $ \left( \color{blue}{3x-5z}\right) $ by each term in $ \left( 3x+5z\right) $. $$ \left( \color{blue}{3x-5z}\right) \cdot \left( 3x+5z\right) = 9x^2+ \cancel{15xz} -\cancel{15xz}-25z^2 $$ |
| ② | Combine like terms: $$ 9x^2+ \, \color{blue}{ \cancel{15xz}} \, \, \color{blue}{ -\cancel{15xz}} \,-25z^2 = 9x^2-25z^2 $$ |
