Simplifying
(x + -2)(x + 1) = x * x + -10

Reorder the terms:
(-2 + x)(x + 1) = x * x + -10

Reorder the terms:
(-2 + x)(1 + x) = x * x + -10

Multiply (-2 + x) * (1 + x)
(-2(1 + x) + x(1 + x)) = x * x + -10
((1 * -2 + x * -2) + x(1 + x)) = x * x + -10
((-2 + -2x) + x(1 + x)) = x * x + -10
(-2 + -2x + (1 * x + x * x)) = x * x + -10
(-2 + -2x + (1x + x2)) = x * x + -10

Combine like terms: -2x + 1x = -1x
(-2 + -1x + x2) = x * x + -10

Multiply x * x
-2 + -1x + x2 = x2 + -10
