(5w-2)(1+w)=0

Solution for (5w-2)(1+w)=0 equation:

Simplifying
(5w + -2)(1 + w) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-2 + 5w)(1 + w) = 0

Multiply (-2 + 5w) * (1 + w)
(-2(1 + w) + 5w * (1 + w)) = 0
((1 * -2 + w * -2) + 5w * (1 + w)) = 0
((-2 + -2w) + 5w * (1 + w)) = 0
(-2 + -2w + (1 * 5w + w * 5w)) = 0
(-2 + -2w + (5w + 5w2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -2w + 5w = 3w
(-2 + 3w + 5w2) = 0

Solving
-2 + 3w + 5w2 = 0

Solving for variable 'w'.

Factor a trinomial.

-1w = 1

Divide each side by '-1'.
w = -1

Simplifying
w = -1
Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(2 + -5w)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
2 + -5w = 0

Solving
2 + -5w = 0

Move all terms containing w to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-2' to each side of the equation.
2 + -2 + -5w = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0
0 + -5w = 0 + -2
-5w = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2
-5w = -2

Divide each side by '-5'.
w = 0.4

Simplifying
w = 0.4
Solution
w = {-1, 0.4}
