Solving for variable 'p'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
5.5 + 7p + p2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-5.5' to each side of the equation.
5.5 + 7p + -5.5 + p2 = 0 + -5.5

Reorder the terms:
5.5 + -5.5 + 7p + p2 = 0 + -5.5

Combine like terms: 5.5 + -5.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 7p + p2 = 0 + -5.5
7p + p2 = 0 + -5.5

Combine like terms: 0 + -5.5 = -5.5
7p + p2 = -5.5

The p term is 7p.  Take half its coefficient (3.5).
Square it (12.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '12.25' to each side of the equation.
7p + 12.25 + p2 = -5.5 + 12.25
