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

Divide each side by '2'.
-3.5 + -3.5r + r2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '3.5' to each side of the equation.
-3.5 + -3.5r + 3.5 + r2 = 0 + 3.5

Reorder the terms:
-3.5 + 3.5 + -3.5r + r2 = 0 + 3.5

Combine like terms: -3.5 + 3.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -3.5r + r2 = 0 + 3.5
-3.5r + r2 = 0 + 3.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 3.5 = 3.5
-3.5r + r2 = 3.5

The r term is -3.5r.  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.
-3.5r + 3.0625 + r2 = 3.5 + 3.0625

Reorder the terms:
3.0625 + -3.5r + r2 = 3.5 + 3.0625

Combine like terms: 3.5 + 3.0625 = 6.5625
3.0625 + -3.5r + r2 = 6.5625
