Expand Using the Binomial Theorem (u+7)^2

${(u + 7)}^{2}$

Step 1

Use the binomial expansion theorem to find each term. The binomial theorem states ${(a + b)}^{n} = \sum_{k = 0}^{n} n C k \cdot (a^{n - k} b^{k})$ .

$\sum_{k = 0}^{2} \frac{2!}{(2 - k)! k!} \cdot {(u)}^{2 - k} \cdot {(7)}^{k}$

Step 2

Expand the summation.

$\frac{2!}{(2 - 0)! 0!} {(u)}^{2 - 0} \cdot {(7)}^{0} + \frac{2!}{(2 - 1)! 1!} {(u)}^{2 - 1} \cdot {(7)}^{1} + \frac{2!}{(2 - 2)! 2!} {(u)}^{2 - 2} \cdot {(7)}^{2}$

Step 3

Simplify the exponents for each term of the expansion.

$1 \cdot {(u)}^{2} \cdot {(7)}^{0} + 2 \cdot {(u)}^{1} \cdot {(7)}^{1} + 1 \cdot {(u)}^{0} \cdot {(7)}^{2}$

Step 4

Simplify each term.

Multiply ${(u)}^{2}$ by $1$ .

${(u)}^{2} \cdot {(7)}^{0} + 2 \cdot {(u)}^{1} \cdot {(7)}^{1} + 1 \cdot {(u)}^{0} \cdot {(7)}^{2}$

Anything raised to $0$ is $1$ .

$u^{2} \cdot 1 + 2 \cdot {(u)}^{1} \cdot {(7)}^{1} + 1 \cdot {(u)}^{0} \cdot {(7)}^{2}$

Multiply $u^{2}$ by $1$ .

$u^{2} + 2 \cdot {(u)}^{1} \cdot {(7)}^{1} + 1 \cdot {(u)}^{0} \cdot {(7)}^{2}$

Simplify.

$u^{2} + 2 \cdot u \cdot {(7)}^{1} + 1 \cdot {(u)}^{0} \cdot {(7)}^{2}$

Evaluate the exponent.

$u^{2} + 2 u \cdot 7 + 1 \cdot {(u)}^{0} \cdot {(7)}^{2}$

Multiply $7$ by $2$ .

$u^{2} + 14 u + 1 \cdot {(u)}^{0} \cdot {(7)}^{2}$

Multiply ${(u)}^{0}$ by $1$ .

$u^{2} + 14 u + {(u)}^{0} \cdot {(7)}^{2}$

Anything raised to $0$ is $1$ .

$u^{2} + 14 u + 1 \cdot {(7)}^{2}$

Multiply ${(7)}^{2}$ by $1$ .

$u^{2} + 14 u + {(7)}^{2}$

Raise $7$ to the power of $2$ .

$u^{2} + 14 u + 49$
