| ① | Multiply each term of $ \left( \color{blue}{3-4x}\right) $ by each term in $ \left( 3x-3\right) $. $$ \left( \color{blue}{3-4x}\right) \cdot \left( 3x-3\right) = 9x-9-12x^2+12x $$ |
| ② | Remove the parentheses by changing the sign of each term within them. $$ - \left(-12x^2+21x-9 \right) = 12x^2-21x+9 $$ |
