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

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#
