| ① | Multiply each term of $ \left( \color{blue}{x+2y-2}\right) $ by each term in $ \left( x-5y-8\right) $. $$ \left( \color{blue}{x+2y-2}\right) \cdot \left( x-5y-8\right) = x^2-5xy-8x+2xy-10y^2-16y-2x+10y+16 $$ |
| ② | Combine like terms: $$ x^2 \color{blue}{-5xy} \color{red}{-8x} + \color{blue}{2xy} -10y^2 \color{green}{-16y} \color{red}{-2x} + \color{green}{10y} +16 = \\ = x^2 \color{blue}{-3xy} -10y^2 \color{red}{-10x} \color{green}{-6y} +16 $$ |
