Solving for variable 'w'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
-25 + -2.5w + w2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '25' to each side of the equation.
-25 + -2.5w + 25 + w2 = 0 + 25

Reorder the terms:
-25 + 25 + -2.5w + w2 = 0 + 25

Combine like terms: -25 + 25 = 0
0 + -2.5w + w2 = 0 + 25
-2.5w + w2 = 0 + 25

Combine like terms: 0 + 25 = 25
-2.5w + w2 = 25

The w term is -2.5w.  Take half its coefficient (-1.25).
Square it (1.5625) and add it to both sides.

Add '1.5625' to each side of the equation.
-2.5w + 1.5625 + w2 = 25 + 1.5625

Reorder the terms:
1.5625 + -2.5w + w2 = 25 + 1.5625

Combine like terms: 25 + 1.5625 = 26.5625
1.5625 + -2.5w + w2 = 26.5625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(w + -1.25)(w + -1.25) = 26.5625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 5.153882032
