| ① | Remove the parentheses by changing the sign of each term within them. $$ - \left( 4x^2+3x+2 \right) = -4x^2-3x-2 $$ |
| ② | Combine like terms: $$ \color{blue}{7x^2} + \color{red}{6x} + \color{green}{5} \color{blue}{-4x^2} \color{red}{-3x} \color{green}{-2} = \color{blue}{3x^2} + \color{red}{3x} + \color{green}{3} $$ |
