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

Divide each side by '25'.
-0.92 + 0.8k + k2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.92' to each side of the equation.
-0.92 + 0.8k + 0.92 + k2 = 0 + 0.92

Reorder the terms:
-0.92 + 0.92 + 0.8k + k2 = 0 + 0.92

Combine like terms: -0.92 + 0.92 = 0.00
0.00 + 0.8k + k2 = 0 + 0.92
0.8k + k2 = 0 + 0.92

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.92 = 0.92
0.8k + k2 = 0.92

The k term is 0.8k.  Take half its coefficient (0.4).
Square it (0.16) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.16' to each side of the equation.
0.8k + 0.16 + k2 = 0.92 + 0.16

Reorder the terms:
0.16 + 0.8k + k2 = 0.92 + 0.16

Combine like terms: 0.92 + 0.16 = 1.08
0.16 + 0.8k + k2 = 1.08

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(k + 0.4)(k + 0.4) = 1.08

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.039230485
