Solving for variable 's'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
0.5 + 4.5s + s2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.5' to each side of the equation.
0.5 + 4.5s + -0.5 + s2 = 0 + -0.5

Reorder the terms:
0.5 + -0.5 + 4.5s + s2 = 0 + -0.5

Combine like terms: 0.5 + -0.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 4.5s + s2 = 0 + -0.5
4.5s + s2 = 0 + -0.5

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.5 = -0.5
4.5s + s2 = -0.5

The s term is 4.5s.  Take half its coefficient (2.25).
Square it (5.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '5.0625' to each side of the equation.
4.5s + 5.0625 + s2 = -0.5 + 5.0625

Reorder the terms:
5.0625 + 4.5s + s2 = -0.5 + 5.0625

Combine like terms: -0.5 + 5.0625 = 4.5625
5.0625 + 4.5s + s2 = 4.5625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(s + 2.25)(s + 2.25) = 4.5625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 2.136000936

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(s + 2.25) equal to 2.136000936 and -2.136000936.

Subproblem 1

s + 2.25 = 2.136000936 Simplifying s + 2.25 = 2.136000936 Reorder the terms: 2.25 + s = 2.136000936 Solving 2.25 + s = 2.136000936 Solving for variable 's'. Move all terms containing s to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-2.25' to each side of the equation. 2.25 + -2.25 + s = 2.136000936 + -2.25 Combine like terms: 2.25 + -2.25 = 0.00 0.00 + s = 2.136000936 + -2.25 s = 2.136000936 + -2.25 Combine like terms: 2.136000936 + -2.25 = -0.113999064 s = -0.113999064 Simplifying s = -0.113999064

Subproblem 2

s + 2.25 = -2.136000936 Simplifying s + 2.25 = -2.136000936 Reorder the terms: 2.25 + s = -2.136000936 Solving 2.25 + s = -2.136000936 Solving for variable 's'. Move all terms containing s to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-2.25' to each side of the equation. 2.25 + -2.25 + s = -2.136000936 + -2.25 Combine like terms: 2.25 + -2.25 = 0.00 0.00 + s = -2.136000936 + -2.25 s = -2.136000936 + -2.25 Combine like terms: -2.136000936 + -2.25 = -4.386000936 s = -4.386000936 Simplifying s = -4.386000936
