| ① | Multiply each term of $ \left( \color{blue}{7-8y}\right) $ by each term in $ \left( 2y+6\right) $. $$ \left( \color{blue}{7-8y}\right) \cdot \left( 2y+6\right) = 14y+42-16y^2-48y $$ |
| ② | Combine like terms: $$ \color{blue}{14y} +42-16y^2 \color{blue}{-48y} = -16y^2 \color{blue}{-34y} +42 $$ |
