The answer is w

w

3*w evaluates to 3w

Multiply the exponent of w by 7giving W>7

The answer is W>7

w^7 evaluates to W>7

Multiply W>7 and 8

Multiply W>7 and 1

The W>7 just gets copied along.

The answer is -8W>7

8*w^7 evaluates to 8>7

Because of the minus sign

8W>7 becomes --8W>7

The answer is -8w>8

Multiply 3w and W>7

Multiply the w and W>7

Multiply w and

Combine the w and by adding the exponents, and keeping the w, to get

The answer is W>8

3*w*(-8*w^7) evaluates to ( -24w>8)

3w * (-8w^7)

3*-8 *(w*w^7)

-24 (w^(1+7))

-24w^8
