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

Divide each side by '2'.
-3.5 + -1p + p2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '3.5' to each side of the equation.
-3.5 + -1p + 3.5 + p2 = 0 + 3.5

Reorder the terms:
-3.5 + 3.5 + -1p + p2 = 0 + 3.5

Combine like terms: -3.5 + 3.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -1p + p2 = 0 + 3.5
-1p + p2 = 0 + 3.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 3.5 = 3.5
-1p + p2 = 3.5

The p term is -1p.  Take half its coefficient (-0.5).
Square it (0.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.25' to each side of the equation.
-1p + 0.25 + p2 = 3.5 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + -1p + p2 = 3.5 + 0.25
