Solving for variable 'y'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
-5 + 3.5y + y2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '5' to each side of the equation.
-5 + 3.5y + 5 + y2 = 0 + 5

Reorder the terms:
-5 + 5 + 3.5y + y2 = 0 + 5

Combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0
0 + 3.5y + y2 = 0 + 5
3.5y + y2 = 0 + 5

Combine like terms: 0 + 5 = 5
3.5y + y2 = 5

The y term is 3.5y.  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.
3.5y + 3.0625 + y2 = 5 + 3.0625
