Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-40 + -7w + w2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -40 + -7w + w2 = 0 Solving -40 + -7w + w2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '40' to each side of the equation. -40 + -7w + 40 + w2 = 0 + 40 Reorder the terms: -40 + 40 + -7w + w2 = 0 + 40 Combine like terms: -40 + 40 = 0 0 + -7w + w2 = 0 + 40 -7w + w2 = 0 + 40 Combine like terms: 0 + 40 = 40 -7w + w2 = 40 The w term is -7w. Take half its coefficient (-3.5). Square it (12.25) and add it to both sides. Add '12.25' to each side of the equation. -7w + 12.25 + w2 = 40 + 12.25 Reorder the terms: 12.25 + -7w + w2 = 40 + 12.25 Combine like terms: 40 + 12.25 = 52.25 12.25 + -7w + w2 = 52.25 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (w + -3.5)(w + -3.5) = 52.25 Calculate the square root of the right side: 7.228416147 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (w + -3.5) equal to 7.228416147 and -7.228416147.

Subproblem 1

w + -3.5 = 7.228416147 Simplifying w + -3.5 = 7.228416147 Reorder the terms: -3.5 + w = 7.228416147 Solving -3.5 + w = 7.228416147 Solving for variable 'w'. Move all terms containing w to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '3.5' to each side of the equation. -3.5 + 3.5 + w = 7.228416147 + 3.5 Combine like terms: -3.5 + 3.5 = 0.0 0.0 + w = 7.228416147 + 3.5 w = 7.228416147 + 3.5 Combine like terms: 7.228416147 + 3.5 = 10.728416147 w = 10.728416147 Simplifying w = 10.728416147

Subproblem 2

w + -3.5 = -7.228416147 Simplifying w + -3.5 = -7.228416147 Reorder the terms: -3.5 + w = -7.228416147 Solving -3.5 + w = -7.228416147 Solving for variable 'w'. Move all terms containing w to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '3.5' to each side of the equation. -3.5 + 3.5 + w = -7.228416147 + 3.5 Combine like terms: -3.5 + 3.5 = 0.0 0.0 + w = -7.228416147 + 3.5 w = -7.228416147 + 3.5 Combine like terms: -7.228416147 + 3.5 = -3.728416147 w = -3.728416147 Simplifying w = -3.728416147
