-3 + 5y + y2 = 0

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '3' to each side of the equation.
-3 + 5y + 3 + y2 = 0 + 3

Reorder the terms:
-3 + 3 + 5y + y2 = 0 + 3

Combine like terms: -3 + 3 = 0
0 + 5y + y2 = 0 + 3
5y + y2 = 0 + 3

Combine like terms: 0 + 3 = 3
5y + y2 = 3

The y term is 5y.  Take half its coefficient (2.5).
Square it (6.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '6.25' to each side of the equation.
5y + 6.25 + y2 = 3 + 6.25

Reorder the terms:
6.25 + 5y + y2 = 3 + 6.25

Combine like terms: 3 + 6.25 = 9.25
6.25 + 5y + y2 = 9.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(y + 2.5)(y + 2.5) = 9.25
