Solving for variable 'w'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
-247 + -3.5w + w2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '247' to each side of the equation.
-247 + -3.5w + 247 + w2 = 0 + 247

Reorder the terms:
-247 + 247 + -3.5w + w2 = 0 + 247

Combine like terms: -247 + 247 = 0
0 + -3.5w + w2 = 0 + 247
-3.5w + w2 = 0 + 247

Combine like terms: 0 + 247 = 247
-3.5w + w2 = 247

The w term is -3.5w.  Take half its coefficient (-1.75).
Square it (3.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '3.0625' to each side of the equation.
-3.5w + 3.0625 + w2 = 247 + 3.0625

Reorder the terms:
3.0625 + -3.5w + w2 = 247 + 3.0625

Combine like terms: 247 + 3.0625 = 250.0625
3.0625 + -3.5w + w2 = 250.0625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(w + -1.75)(w + -1.75) = 250.0625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 15.813364601
