10k2 + 7k = -12

Reorder the terms:
7k + 10k2 = -12

Solving
7k + 10k2 = -12

Solving for variable 'k'.

Reorder the terms:
12 + 7k + 10k2 = -12 + 12

Combine like terms: -12 + 12 = 0
12 + 7k + 10k2 = 0

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

Divide each side by '10'.
1.2 + 0.7k + k2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-1.2' to each side of the equation.
1.2 + 0.7k + -1.2 + k2 = 0 + -1.2

Reorder the terms:
1.2 + -1.2 + 0.7k + k2 = 0 + -1.2

Combine like terms: 1.2 + -1.2 = 0.0
0.0 + 0.7k + k2 = 0 + -1.2
0.7k + k2 = 0 + -1.2

Combine like terms: 0 + -1.2 = -1.2
0.7k + k2 = -1.2

The k term is 0.7k.  Take half its coefficient (0.35).
Square it (0.1225) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.1225' to each side of the equation.
0.7k + 0.1225 + k2 = -1.2 + 0.1225

Reorder the terms:
0.1225 + 0.7k + k2 = -1.2 + 0.1225

Combine like terms: -1.2 + 0.1225 = -1.0775
0.1225 + 0.7k + k2 = -1.0775

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(k + 0.35)(k + 0.35) = -1.0775

Can't calculate square root of the right side.

The solution to this equation could not be determined.
