① | $$ 71 u v^2 u = 71 u^{1 + 1} v^{2} = 71 u^2 v^2 $$$$ 3 u v^2 v = 3 u v^{2 + 1} = 3 u v^3 $$ |
② | $$ 5 u^6 u^2 v^4 = 5 u^{6 + 2} v^{4} = 5 u^8 v^4 $$$$ 3 u^3 v^2 v^2 u^5 = 3 u^{3 + 5} v^{2 + 2} = 3 u^8 v^4 $$ |
③ | Combine like terms: $$ 71u^2v^2+3uv^3-5u^8v^4 = -5u^8v^4+71u^2v^2+3uv^3 $$ |
④ | Combine like terms: $$ \color{blue}{-5u^8v^4} +71u^2v^2+3uv^3+ \color{blue}{3u^8v^4} = \color{blue}{-2u^8v^4} +71u^2v^2+3uv^3 $$ |
