To solve this equation, we first combine like terms on both sides of the equation:

-7 - 7w - 5w = 5 - 9w
-7 - 12w = 5 - 9w

Next, we can simplify the equation by adding 12w to both sides and subtracting 5 from both sides:

-7 - 12w + 12w = 5 - 9w + 12w
-7 = 5 + 3w

Now we can subtract 5 from both sides:

-7 - 5 = 5 + 3w - 5
-12 = 3w

Finally, we divide both sides by 3 to solve for w:

w = -12/3
w = -4

Therefore, the solution to the equation -7 - 5w - 7w = 5 - 9w is w = -4.
