Solving
5 + -1w = 0

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

Add '-5' to each side of the equation.
5 + -5 + -1w = 0 + -5

Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0
0 + -1w = 0 + -5
-1w = 0 + -5

Combine like terms: 0 + -5 = -5
-1w = -5

Divide each side by '-1'.
w = 5

Simplifying
w = 5
Solution
w = {-3, 5}
