Solving for variable 'n'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
2 + 3.5n + n2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-2' to each side of the equation.
2 + 3.5n + -2 + n2 = 0 + -2

Reorder the terms:
2 + -2 + 3.5n + n2 = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0
0 + 3.5n + n2 = 0 + -2
3.5n + n2 = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2
3.5n + n2 = -2

The n term is 3.5n.  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.
3.5n + 3.0625 + n2 = -2 + 3.0625

Reorder the terms:
3.0625 + 3.5n + n2 = -2 + 3.0625

Combine like terms: -2 + 3.0625 = 1.0625
3.0625 + 3.5n + n2 = 1.0625
