Solution Steps

To simplify \((7w)^2\), we need to apply the exponent to both the coefficient and the variable. This means squaring 7 and squaring \(w\).

Step 1: Apply the Exponent to the Coefficient

To simplify \((7w)^2\), we first apply the exponent to the coefficient \(7\): \[ 7^2 = 49 \]

Step 2: Apply the Exponent to the Variable

Next, we apply the exponent to the variable \(w\): \[ w^2 = w^2 \]

Step 3: Combine the Results

Combine the squared coefficient and the squared variable: \[ (7w)^2 = 49w^2 \]

Final Answer

\[ \boxed{49w^2} \]
