Solving for variable 'c'.

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

Divide each side by '25'.
-0.04 + -0.4c + c2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.04' to each side of the equation.
-0.04 + -0.4c + 0.04 + c2 = 0 + 0.04

Reorder the terms:
-0.04 + 0.04 + -0.4c + c2 = 0 + 0.04

Combine like terms: -0.04 + 0.04 = 0.00
0.00 + -0.4c + c2 = 0 + 0.04
-0.4c + c2 = 0 + 0.04

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.04 = 0.04
-0.4c + c2 = 0.04

The c term is -0.4c.  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.
-0.4c + 0.04 + c2 = 0.04 + 0.04

Reorder the terms:
0.04 + -0.4c + c2 = 0.04 + 0.04

Combine like terms: 0.04 + 0.04 = 0.08
0.04 + -0.4c + c2 = 0.08

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(c + -0.2)(c + -0.2) = 0.08

Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.282842712

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(c + -0.2) equal to 0.282842712 and -0.282842712.

Subproblem 1

c + -0.2 = 0.282842712 Simplifying c + -0.2 = 0.282842712 Reorder the terms: -0.2 + c = 0.282842712 Solving -0.2 + c = 0.282842712 Solving for variable 'c'. Move all terms containing c to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.2' to each side of the equation. -0.2 + 0.2 + c = 0.282842712 + 0.2 Combine like terms: -0.2 + 0.2 = 0.0 0.0 + c = 0.282842712 + 0.2 c = 0.282842712 + 0.2 Combine like terms: 0.282842712 + 0.2 = 0.482842712 c = 0.482842712 Simplifying c = 0.482842712

Subproblem 2

c + -0.2 = -0.282842712 Simplifying c + -0.2 = -0.282842712 Reorder the terms: -0.2 + c = -0.282842712 Solving -0.2 + c = -0.282842712 Solving for variable 'c'. Move all terms containing c to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.2' to each side of the equation. -0.2 + 0.2 + c = -0.282842712 + 0.2 Combine like terms: -0.2 + 0.2 = 0.0 0.0 + c = -0.282842712 + 0.2 c = -0.282842712 + 0.2 Combine like terms: -0.282842712 + 0.2 = -0.082842712 c = -0.082842712 Simplifying c = -0.082842712

Solution
