Add '0.4' to each side of the equation.
-0.4 + 0.4y + 0.4 + y2 = 0 + 0.4

Reorder the terms:
-0.4 + 0.4 + 0.4y + y2 = 0 + 0.4

Combine like terms: -0.4 + 0.4 = 0.0
0.0 + 0.4y + y2 = 0 + 0.4
0.4y + y2 = 0 + 0.4

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.4 = 0.4
0.4y + y2 = 0.4

The y term is 0.4y.  Take half its coefficient (0.2).
Square it (0.04) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.04' to each side of the equation.
0.4y + 0.04 + y2 = 0.4 + 0.04

Reorder the terms:
0.04 + 0.4y + y2 = 0.4 + 0.04

Combine like terms: 0.4 + 0.04 = 0.44
0.04 + 0.4y + y2 = 0.44
