    Also, I assume you're using i as in so don't forget that . That will help you simplify the solution some.

    What I was taught was to use the FOIL method to do those kinds of problems. First, Outside, Inside Last.

    Take 6*5, 6*i, -2i*5, and -2i*i put them in order as you multiplied and simplify.
