Solving for variable 'm'.

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-4 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-4'.
-0.75 + 5m + m2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.75' to each side of the equation.
-0.75 + 5m + 0.75 + m2 = 0 + 0.75

Reorder the terms:
-0.75 + 0.75 + 5m + m2 = 0 + 0.75

Combine like terms: -0.75 + 0.75 = 0.00
0.00 + 5m + m2 = 0 + 0.75
5m + m2 = 0 + 0.75

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.75 = 0.75
5m + m2 = 0.75

The m term is 5m.  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.
5m + 6.25 + m2 = 0.75 + 6.25

Reorder the terms:
6.25 + 5m + m2 = 0.75 + 6.25

Combine like terms: 0.75 + 6.25 = 7
6.25 + 5m + m2 = 7

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(m + 2.5)(m + 2.5) = 7

Calculate the square root of the right side: 2.645751311
