Solving for variable 'd'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
-1 + 3.5d + d2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
-1 + 3.5d + 1 + d2 = 0 + 1

Reorder the terms:
-1 + 1 + 3.5d + d2 = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0
0 + 3.5d + d2 = 0 + 1
3.5d + d2 = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: 0 + 1 = 1
3.5d + d2 = 1

The d term is 3.5d.  Take half its coefficient (1.75).
Square it (3.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '3.0625' to each side of the equation.
3.5d + 3.0625 + d2 = 1 + 3.0625

Reorder the terms:
3.0625 + 3.5d + d2 = 1 + 3.0625

Combine like terms: 1 + 3.0625 = 4.0625
3.0625 + 3.5d + d2 = 4.0625
