Solving for variable 'w'.

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-2' to each side of the equation.
2 + -7w + -2 + w2 = 0 + -2

Reorder the terms:
2 + -2 + -7w + w2 = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0
0 + -7w + w2 = 0 + -2
-7w + w2 = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2
-7w + w2 = -2

The w term is -7w.  Take half its coefficient (-3.5).
Square it (12.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '12.25' to each side of the equation.
-7w + 12.25 + w2 = -2 + 12.25
