Subproblem 1
Set the factor 'w' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
w = 0

Solving
w = 0

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

Simplifying
w = 0
Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(2 + w)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
2 + w = 0

Solving
2 + w = 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 + w = 0 + -2

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

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

Simplifying
w = -2
Solution
w = {0, -2}
