I assume you want to solve it so start off with the distributive property.

 -5 (3w-3)+(6w+1)=0
-15w+15+6w+1=0         negatives times positives are negative and negatives                                        times negatives are positive
Combine like terms
-9w+16=0           Move constants and variables to opposite sides
       -16  -16
-----------------
-9w=-16
-----   -----
-9       -9

w=16/9


solve for w
first, distribute -5
-15w+15+6w+1=0
add like terms
-9w+16=0
add 9w to both sides
16=9w
divide both sides by 9
16/9=w
