Solving for variable 'w'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
-1.5 + -5.5w + w2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1.5' to each side of the equation.
-1.5 + -5.5w + 1.5 + w2 = 0 + 1.5

Reorder the terms:
-1.5 + 1.5 + -5.5w + w2 = 0 + 1.5

Combine like terms: -1.5 + 1.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -5.5w + w2 = 0 + 1.5
-5.5w + w2 = 0 + 1.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 1.5 = 1.5
-5.5w + w2 = 1.5

The w term is -5.5w.  Take half its coefficient (-2.75).
Square it (7.5625) and add it to both sides.

Add '7.5625' to each side of the equation.
-5.5w + 7.5625 + w2 = 1.5 + 7.5625

Reorder the terms:
7.5625 + -5.5w + w2 = 1.5 + 7.5625

Combine like terms: 1.5 + 7.5625 = 9.0625
7.5625 + -5.5w + w2 = 9.0625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(w + -2.75)(w + -2.75) = 9.0625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 3.010398645
