Solving for variable 'w'.

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

Divide each side by '5'.
-38.4 + 2.4w + w2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '38.4' to each side of the equation.
-38.4 + 2.4w + 38.4 + w2 = 0 + 38.4

Reorder the terms:
-38.4 + 38.4 + 2.4w + w2 = 0 + 38.4

Combine like terms: -38.4 + 38.4 = 0.0
0.0 + 2.4w + w2 = 0 + 38.4
2.4w + w2 = 0 + 38.4

Combine like terms: 0 + 38.4 = 38.4
2.4w + w2 = 38.4

The w term is 2.4w.  Take half its coefficient (1.2).
Square it (1.44) and add it to both sides.

Add '1.44' to each side of the equation.
2.4w + 1.44 + w2 = 38.4 + 1.44

Reorder the terms:
1.44 + 2.4w + w2 = 38.4 + 1.44

Combine like terms: 38.4 + 1.44 = 39.84
1.44 + 2.4w + w2 = 39.84

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(w + 1.2)(w + 1.2) = 39.84
