Solving for variable 'y'.

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

Divide each side by '25'.
-1.12 + 0.8y + y2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1.12' to each side of the equation.
-1.12 + 0.8y + 1.12 + y2 = 0 + 1.12

Reorder the terms:
-1.12 + 1.12 + 0.8y + y2 = 0 + 1.12

Combine like terms: -1.12 + 1.12 = 0.00
0.00 + 0.8y + y2 = 0 + 1.12
0.8y + y2 = 0 + 1.12

Combine like terms: 0 + 1.12 = 1.12
0.8y + y2 = 1.12

The y term is 0.8y.  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.
0.8y + 0.16 + y2 = 1.12 + 0.16

Reorder the terms:
0.16 + 0.8y + y2 = 1.12 + 0.16

Combine like terms: 1.12 + 0.16 = 1.28
0.16 + 0.8y + y2 = 1.28

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(y + 0.4)(y + 0.4) = 1.28

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.13137085

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(y + 0.4) equal to 1.13137085 and -1.13137085.

Subproblem 1

y + 0.4 = 1.13137085 Simplifying y + 0.4 = 1.13137085 Reorder the terms: 0.4 + y = 1.13137085 Solving 0.4 + y = 1.13137085 Solving for variable 'y'. Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.4' to each side of the equation. 0.4 + -0.4 + y = 1.13137085 + -0.4 Combine like terms: 0.4 + -0.4 = 0.0 0.0 + y = 1.13137085 + -0.4 y = 1.13137085 + -0.4 Combine like terms: 1.13137085 + -0.4 = 0.73137085 y = 0.73137085 Simplifying y = 0.73137085

Subproblem 2

y + 0.4 = -1.13137085 Simplifying y + 0.4 = -1.13137085 Reorder the terms: 0.4 + y = -1.13137085 Solving 0.4 + y = -1.13137085 Solving for variable 'y'. Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.4' to each side of the equation. 0.4 + -0.4 + y = -1.13137085 + -0.4 Combine like terms: 0.4 + -0.4 = 0.0 0.0 + y = -1.13137085 + -0.4 y = -1.13137085 + -0.4 Combine like terms: -1.13137085 + -0.4 = -1.53137085 y = -1.53137085 Simplifying y = -1.53137085
