49x^2-70xy+25y^2

Explanation:

Write as: color(blue)((7x-5y))color(brown)((7x-5y))

Multiply everything inside the right brackets by everything in the left brackets.

Notice that the minus follows the color(blue)(-5y)

color(brown)(color(blue)(7x)(7x-5y)" "color(blue)(-5y)(7x-5y))

49x^2-35xy" "-35xy+25y^2

49x^2-70xy+25y^2
