Solving for variable 's'.

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-5 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-5'.
-0.2 + -3s + s2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.2' to each side of the equation.
-0.2 + -3s + 0.2 + s2 = 0 + 0.2

Reorder the terms:
-0.2 + 0.2 + -3s + s2 = 0 + 0.2

Combine like terms: -0.2 + 0.2 = 0.0
0.0 + -3s + s2 = 0 + 0.2
-3s + s2 = 0 + 0.2

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.2 = 0.2
-3s + s2 = 0.2

The s term is -3s.  Take half its coefficient (-1.5).
Square it (2.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '2.25' to each side of the equation.
-3s + 2.25 + s2 = 0.2 + 2.25

Reorder the terms:
2.25 + -3s + s2 = 0.2 + 2.25

Combine like terms: 0.2 + 2.25 = 2.45
2.25 + -3s + s2 = 2.45
