Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-2 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-2'.
-1.5 + -3.5k + k2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1.5' to each side of the equation.
-1.5 + -3.5k + 1.5 + k2 = 0 + 1.5

Reorder the terms:
-1.5 + 1.5 + -3.5k + k2 = 0 + 1.5

Combine like terms: -1.5 + 1.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -3.5k + k2 = 0 + 1.5
-3.5k + k2 = 0 + 1.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 1.5 = 1.5
-3.5k + k2 = 1.5

The k term is -3.5k.  Take half its coefficient (-1.75).
Square it (3.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '3.0625' to each side of the equation.
-3.5k + 3.0625 + k2 = 1.5 + 3.0625

Reorder the terms:
3.0625 + -3.5k + k2 = 1.5 + 3.0625

Combine like terms: 1.5 + 3.0625 = 4.5625
3.0625 + -3.5k + k2 = 4.5625
