(w-2)(7w+1)=0

Solution for (w-2)(7w+1)=0 equation:

Simplifying
(w + -2)(7w + 1) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-2 + w)(7w + 1) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-2 + w)(1 + 7w) = 0

Multiply (-2 + w) * (1 + 7w)
(-2(1 + 7w) + w(1 + 7w)) = 0
((1 * -2 + 7w * -2) + w(1 + 7w)) = 0
((-2 + -14w) + w(1 + 7w)) = 0
(-2 + -14w + (1 * w + 7w * w)) = 0
(-2 + -14w + (1w + 7w2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -14w + 1w = -13w
(-2 + -13w + 7w2) = 0

Solving
-2 + -13w + 7w2 = 0

Solving for variable 'w'.

Factor a trinomial.
