For example, think about 8.4 - 2.9.
You have to regroup because you can't subract 4 - 9.
4 turns into a 14 since you borrow from the left number, 8.
8 turns into a 7 after that.
Now, you have to subtract 14 - 9 and 7 - 2. You're answer is 5.5.
You can check your work by doing inverse opperations:
By adding:
5.5 + 2.9 = 8.4
Or by subracting 8.4 - 5.5 = 2.9

Answer:
w=2, -3
Step-by-step explanation:
minus 25 from each side
1+-25+4w^2+4w=25+-25
combine like terms
-24+4w^2+4w=0
factor out the greatest Common factor
4(-6+w+w^2)=0
factor a trinomial
4((-3+-1w)(2+-1w))=0
I hope this helps!
