| ① | Multiply each term of $ \left( \color{blue}{10x+40}\right) $ by each term in $ \left( x-5\right) $. $$ \left( \color{blue}{10x+40}\right) \cdot \left( x-5\right) = 10x^2-50x+40x-200 $$ |
| ② | Remove the parentheses by changing the sign of each term within them. $$ - \left(10x^2-10x-200 \right) = -10x^2+10x+200 $$ |
