Hello!

[tex]==========================================[/tex]

In order to solve this equation for w, we need to factor it.

First, let's think of 2 numbers that multiply to -24 and add to 2.

These numbers are -4 and 6.

Check:

6×(-4)=-24 ✓

6+(-4)=6-4=2✓

Now, factor:

(     ) (    )

That's how it should look like:

(w+   )( w-   )

Now, instead of the blanks, plug in -4 & 6:

(w-4)(w+6)

Now, set each factor equal to 0:

w-4=0

w=4

w+6=0

w=-6
