Solving for variable 'b'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
2 + -3.5b + b2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-2' to each side of the equation.
2 + -3.5b + -2 + b2 = 0 + -2

Reorder the terms:
2 + -2 + -3.5b + b2 = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0
0 + -3.5b + b2 = 0 + -2
-3.5b + b2 = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2
-3.5b + b2 = -2

The b term is -3.5b.  Take half its coefficient (-1.75).
