Solving for variable 'k'.

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

Divide each side by '10'.
-0.7 + -1.1k + k2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.7' to each side of the equation.
-0.7 + -1.1k + 0.7 + k2 = 0 + 0.7

Reorder the terms:
-0.7 + 0.7 + -1.1k + k2 = 0 + 0.7

Combine like terms: -0.7 + 0.7 = 0.0
0.0 + -1.1k + k2 = 0 + 0.7
-1.1k + k2 = 0 + 0.7

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.7 = 0.7
-1.1k + k2 = 0.7

The k term is -1.1k.  Take half its coefficient (-0.55).
Square it (0.3025) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.3025' to each side of the equation.
-1.1k + 0.3025 + k2 = 0.7 + 0.3025

Reorder the terms:
0.3025 + -1.1k + k2 = 0.7 + 0.3025

Combine like terms: 0.7 + 0.3025 = 1.0025
0.3025 + -1.1k + k2 = 1.0025

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(k + -0.55)(k + -0.55) = 1.0025

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.00124922

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(k + -0.55) equal to 1.00124922 and -1.00124922.

Subproblem 1

k + -0.55 = 1.00124922 Simplifying k + -0.55 = 1.00124922 Reorder the terms: -0.55 + k = 1.00124922 Solving -0.55 + k = 1.00124922 Solving for variable 'k'. Move all terms containing k to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.55' to each side of the equation. -0.55 + 0.55 + k = 1.00124922 + 0.55 Combine like terms: -0.55 + 0.55 = 0.00 0.00 + k = 1.00124922 + 0.55 k = 1.00124922 + 0.55 Combine like terms: 1.00124922 + 0.55 = 1.55124922 k = 1.55124922 Simplifying k = 1.55124922

Subproblem 2

k + -0.55 = -1.00124922 Simplifying k + -0.55 = -1.00124922 Reorder the terms: -0.55 + k = -1.00124922 Solving -0.55 + k = -1.00124922 Solving for variable 'k'. Move all terms containing k to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.55' to each side of the equation. -0.55 + 0.55 + k = -1.00124922 + 0.55 Combine like terms: -0.55 + 0.55 = 0.00 0.00 + k = -1.00124922 + 0.55 k = -1.00124922 + 0.55 Combine like terms: -1.00124922 + 0.55 = -0.45124922 k = -0.45124922 Simplifying k = -0.45124922
