-a^3b^2c^2-a^2b^3c^2+a^2b^2c^3a3b2c2a2b3c2+a2b2c3 is the answer.

Explanation:

-a^2b^2c^2(a+b-c)a2b2c2(a+bc)

Distribute the parantheses.

=-a^2b^2c^2a-a^2b^2c^2b-a^2b^2c^2(-c)=a2b2c2aa2b2c2ba2b2c2(c)

Apply minus-plus rules \ \ \ -(-a)=a \ \ \ \ or\ \ \ \ +(-a)=-a

=-a^2b^2c^2a-a^2b^2c^2b+a^2b^2c^2c

Apply the exponent rule a^b\cdot a^c=a^{b+c} to get:

=-a^3b^2c^2-a^2b^3c^2+a^2b^2c^3
