| $$ \begin{aligned}-p(4p^2+p-2)& \xlongequal{ \color{blue}{ \text{\normalsize{ \htmlClass{explanationCircle explanationCircle1}{\textcircled {1}} } }}}-(4p^3+p^2-2p) \xlongequal{ } \\[1 em] & \xlongequal{ \color{blue}{ \text{\normalsize{ \htmlClass{explanationCircle explanationCircle2}{\textcircled {2}} } }}}-4p^3-p^2+2p\end{aligned} $$ | |
| ① | Multiply $ \color{blue}{p} $ by $ \left( 4p^2+p-2\right) $ $$ \color{blue}{p} \cdot \left( 4p^2+p-2\right) = 4p^3+p^2-2p $$ |
| ② | Remove the parentheses by changing the sign of each term within them. $$ - \left(4p^3+p^2-2p \right) = -4p^3-p^2+2p $$ |
