Solving for variable 'y'.

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

Divide each side by '10'.
-0.5 + 2.8y + y2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.5' to each side of the equation.
-0.5 + 2.8y + 0.5 + y2 = 0 + 0.5

Reorder the terms:
-0.5 + 0.5 + 2.8y + y2 = 0 + 0.5

Combine like terms: -0.5 + 0.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 2.8y + y2 = 0 + 0.5
2.8y + y2 = 0 + 0.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.5 = 0.5
2.8y + y2 = 0.5

The y term is 2.8y.  Take half its coefficient (1.4).
Square it (1.96) and add it to both sides.

Add '1.96' to each side of the equation.
2.8y + 1.96 + y2 = 0.5 + 1.96

Reorder the terms:
1.96 + 2.8y + y2 = 0.5 + 1.96

Combine like terms: 0.5 + 1.96 = 2.46
1.96 + 2.8y + y2 = 2.46

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(y + 1.4)(y + 1.4) = 2.46

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.568438714
