2n2+n-1-1(2n)-1-12n2+n11(2n)11
2n2+n-1-1(2n)-1-12n2+n11(2n)11
Step 2.1.3
Move -11 to the left of nn.
2n2-1n-1(2n)-1-12n21n1(2n)11
Step 2.1.4
Rewrite -1n1n as -nn.
2n2-n-1(2n)-1-12n2n1(2n)11
Step 2.1.5
Multiply 22 by -11.
2n2-n-2n-1-12n2n2n11
Step 2.1.6
Multiply -11 by -11.
2n2-n-2n+12n2n2n+1
2n2-n-2n+12n2n2n+1
Step 2.2
