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

Divide each side by '2'.
-24 + 0.5w + w2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '24' to each side of the equation.
-24 + 0.5w + 24 + w2 = 0 + 24

Reorder the terms:
-24 + 24 + 0.5w + w2 = 0 + 24

Combine like terms: -24 + 24 = 0
0 + 0.5w + w2 = 0 + 24
0.5w + w2 = 0 + 24

Combine like terms: 0 + 24 = 24
0.5w + w2 = 24

The w term is w.  Take half its coefficient (0.5).
Square it (0.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.25' to each side of the equation.
0.5w + 0.25 + w2 = 24 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + 0.5w + w2 = 24 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 24 + 0.25 = 24.25
0.25 + 0.5w + w2 = 24.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(w + 0.5)(w + 0.5) = 24.25

Calculate the square root of the right side: 4.924428901

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(w + 0.5) equal to 4.924428901 and -4.924428901.

Subproblem 1

w + 0.5 = 4.924428901 Simplifying w + 0.5 = 4.924428901 Reorder the terms: 0.5 + w = 4.924428901 Solving 0.5 + w = 4.924428901 Solving for variable 'w'. Move all terms containing w to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.5' to each side of the equation. 0.5 + -0.5 + w = 4.924428901 + -0.5 Combine like terms: 0.5 + -0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + w = 4.924428901 + -0.5 w = 4.924428901 + -0.5 Combine like terms: 4.924428901 + -0.5 = 4.424428901 w = 4.424428901 Simplifying w = 4.424428901

Subproblem 2

w + 0.5 = -4.924428901 Simplifying w + 0.5 = -4.924428901 Reorder the terms: 0.5 + w = -4.924428901 Solving 0.5 + w = -4.924428901 Solving for variable 'w'. Move all terms containing w to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.5' to each side of the equation. 0.5 + -0.5 + w = -4.924428901 + -0.5 Combine like terms: 0.5 + -0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + w = -4.924428901 + -0.5 w = -4.924428901 + -0.5 Combine like terms: -4.924428901 + -0.5 = -5.424428901 w = -5.424428901 Simplifying w = -5.424428901
