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

Divide each side by '10'.
-0.9 + -0.7s + s2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.9' to each side of the equation.
-0.9 + -0.7s + 0.9 + s2 = 0 + 0.9

Reorder the terms:
-0.9 + 0.9 + -0.7s + s2 = 0 + 0.9

Combine like terms: -0.9 + 0.9 = 0.0
0.0 + -0.7s + s2 = 0 + 0.9
-0.7s + s2 = 0 + 0.9

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.9 = 0.9
-0.7s + s2 = 0.9

The s term is -0.7s.  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.
-0.7s + 0.1225 + s2 = 0.9 + 0.1225

Reorder the terms:
0.1225 + -0.7s + s2 = 0.9 + 0.1225

Combine like terms: 0.9 + 0.1225 = 1.0225
0.1225 + -0.7s + s2 = 1.0225

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(s + -0.35)(s + -0.35) = 1.0225

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.011187421
