Find Product of : 2w × (3w+4)
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
2*w*(3*w+4)-(-3*w-4)=0
Step by step solution :
STEP
1
:
Equation at the end of step 1
2w • (3w + 4) - (-3w - 4) = 0
STEP
2
:
Pulling out like terms
2.1 Pull out 3w+4
Note that -3w-4 =(-1)• 3w+4
After pulling out, we are left with :
(3w+4) • ( 2w * (-1) +( (-1) ))
STEP
3
:
Pulling out like terms
3.1 Pull out like factors :
-2w - 1 = -1 • (2w + 1)
Equation at the end of step
3
:
(-3w - 4) • (2w + 1) = 0

Theory - Roots of a product
4.1 A product of several terms equals zero.
When a product of two or more terms equals zero, then at least one of the terms must be zero.
We shall now solve each term = 0 separately
In other words, we are going to solve as many equations as there are terms in the product
Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.
Solving a Single Variable Equation:
4.2 Solve : -3w-4 = 0
Add 4 to both sides of the equation :
-3w = 4
Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) : 3w = -4
Divide both sides of the equation by 3:
w = -4/3 = -1.333
Solving a Single Variable Equation:
4.3 Solve : 2w+1 = 0
Subtract 1 from both sides of the equation :
2w = -1
Divide both sides of the equation by 2:
w = -1/2 = -0.500
Two solutions were found :
w = -1/2 = -0.500
w = -4/3 = -1.333
