① | Remove the parentheses by changing the sign of each term within them. $$ - \left( 5y^2-8y-3 \right) = -5y^2+8y+3 $$ |
② | Combine like terms: $$ \color{blue}{8y^2} + \color{red}{7y} + \color{green}{10} \color{blue}{-5y^2} + \color{red}{8y} + \color{green}{3} = \color{blue}{3y^2} + \color{red}{15y} + \color{green}{13} $$ |
