Solving for variable 'y'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
4.5 + 5y + y2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-4.5' to each side of the equation.
4.5 + 5y + -4.5 + y2 = 0 + -4.5

Reorder the terms:
4.5 + -4.5 + 5y + y2 = 0 + -4.5

Combine like terms: 4.5 + -4.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 5y + y2 = 0 + -4.5
5y + y2 = 0 + -4.5

Combine like terms: 0 + -4.5 = -4.5
5y + y2 = -4.5

The y term is 5y.  Take half its coefficient (2.5).
Square it (6.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '6.25' to each side of the equation.
5y + 6.25 + y2 = -4.5 + 6.25

Reorder the terms:
6.25 + 5y + y2 = -4.5 + 6.25

Combine like terms: -4.5 + 6.25 = 1.75
6.25 + 5y + y2 = 1.75
