Solving for variable 'w'.

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
2 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '2'.
3.5 + 6w + w2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-3.5' to each side of the equation.
3.5 + 6w + -3.5 + w2 = 0 + -3.5

Reorder the terms:
3.5 + -3.5 + 6w + w2 = 0 + -3.5

Combine like terms: 3.5 + -3.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 6w + w2 = 0 + -3.5
6w + w2 = 0 + -3.5

Combine like terms: 0 + -3.5 = -3.5
6w + w2 = -3.5

The w term is 6w.  Take half its coefficient (3).
Square it (9) and add it to both sides.

Add '9' to each side of the equation.
6w + 9 + w2 = -3.5 + 9

Reorder the terms:
9 + 6w + w2 = -3.5 + 9

Combine like terms: -3.5 + 9 = 5.5
9 + 6w + w2 = 5.5

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(w + 3)(w + 3) = 5.5

Calculate the square root of the right side: 2.34520788

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(w + 3) equal to 2.34520788 and -2.34520788.

Subproblem 1

w + 3 = 2.34520788 Simplifying w + 3 = 2.34520788 Reorder the terms: 3 + w = 2.34520788 Solving 3 + w = 2.34520788 Solving for variable 'w'. Move all terms containing w to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-3' to each side of the equation. 3 + -3 + w = 2.34520788 + -3 Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0 0 + w = 2.34520788 + -3 w = 2.34520788 + -3 Combine like terms: 2.34520788 + -3 = -0.65479212 w = -0.65479212 Simplifying w = -0.65479212

Subproblem 2

w + 3 = -2.34520788 Simplifying w + 3 = -2.34520788 Reorder the terms: 3 + w = -2.34520788 Solving 3 + w = -2.34520788 Solving for variable 'w'. Move all terms containing w to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-3' to each side of the equation. 3 + -3 + w = -2.34520788 + -3 Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0 0 + w = -2.34520788 + -3 w = -2.34520788 + -3 Combine like terms: -2.34520788 + -3 = -5.34520788 w = -5.34520788 Simplifying w = -5.34520788
