1. **Problem statement:**
Simplify the expression \((x^3+x^2y+xy^2+y^3)(x+y)-2x^3y-3x^2y^2-2xy^3\) and then calculate its value at \(x=-1\) and \(y=-1\).
2. **Formula and rules:**
Use distributive property to expand products and combine like terms.
3. **Step-by-step simplification:**
\[(x^3+x^2y+xy^2+y^3)(x+y) = x^3(x+y) + x^2y(x+y) + xy^2(x+y) + y^3(x+y)\]
Expanding each term:
\[= x^4 + x^3y + x^3y + x^2y^2 + x^2y^2 + xy^3 + xy^3 + y^4\]
Combine like terms:
\[= x^4 + 2x^3y + 2x^2y^2 + 2xy^3 + y^4\]
Now subtract the remaining terms:
\[x^4 + 2x^3y + 2x^2y^2 + 2xy^3 + y^4 - 2x^3y - 3x^2y^2 - 2xy^3\]
Simplify by canceling terms:
\[= x^4 + \cancel{2x^3y} + 2x^2y^2 + \cancel{2xy^3} + y^4 - \cancel{2x^3y} - 3x^2y^2 - \cancel{2xy^3}\]
\[= x^4 + (2x^2y^2 - 3x^2y^2) + y^4 = x^4 - x^2y^2 + y^4\]
4. **Calculate value at \(x=-1, y=-1\):**
\[(-1)^4 - (-1)^2(-1)^2 + (-1)^4 = 1 - 1 + 1 = 1\]
**Final answer:**
\[\boxed{x^4 - x^2y^2 + y^4}\]
Value at \(x=-1, y=-1\) is \(1\).
