Well even, so it can't be -7 or -5. One that follows would be behind the number. It's -4.

|w|=0 ; original equation.

Let w=0.

Then substituting this value of w into the original equation you get |0|=0.

By definition |0|=0

Replace |0| on the left hand side of |0|=0 gives

 the statement 0=0 which is a true statement.

The only value of w that satisfies the equation |w|=0 is 0.

Therefore solution set for this equation is {0}.
