| ① | Combine like terms: $$ \color{blue}{8y^3} -y^2+ \color{blue}{5y^3} = \color{blue}{13y^3} -y^2 $$ |
| ② | Remove the parentheses by changing the sign of each term within them. $$ - \left( 13y^3-y^2 \right) = -13y^3+y^2 $$ |
| ③ | Combine like terms: $$ 10+ \color{blue}{2y^2} -13y^3+ \color{blue}{y^2} = -13y^3+ \color{blue}{3y^2} +10 $$ |
