Solve the equation w3 = 1,000.

1.2 Factoring w2 + 10w + 100

The first term is, w2 its coefficient is 1.

The middle term is, + 10w its coefficient is 10.

The last term, "the constant", is + 100

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • 100 = 100

Step-2 : Find two factors of 100 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is 10.

-100 + - 1 = - 101

-50 + - 2 = - 52

-25 + - 4 = - 29

-20 + - 5 = - 25

-10 + - 10 = - 20

-5 + - 20 = - 25
