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

Divide each side by '-2'.
-0.5 + 13s + s2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.5' to each side of the equation.
-0.5 + 13s + 0.5 + s2 = 0 + 0.5

Reorder the terms:
-0.5 + 0.5 + 13s + s2 = 0 + 0.5

Combine like terms: -0.5 + 0.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 13s + s2 = 0 + 0.5
13s + s2 = 0 + 0.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.5 = 0.5
13s + s2 = 0.5

The s term is 13s.  Take half its coefficient (6.5).
Square it (42.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '42.25' to each side of the equation.
13s + 42.25 + s2 = 0.5 + 42.25

Reorder the terms:
42.25 + 13s + s2 = 0.5 + 42.25

Combine like terms: 0.5 + 42.25 = 42.75
42.25 + 13s + s2 = 42.75

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(s + 6.5)(s + 6.5) = 42.75

Calculate the square root of the right side: 6.538348415

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(s + 6.5) equal to 6.538348415 and -6.538348415.

Subproblem 1

s + 6.5 = 6.538348415 Simplifying s + 6.5 = 6.538348415 Reorder the terms: 6.5 + s = 6.538348415 Solving 6.5 + s = 6.538348415 Solving for variable 's'. Move all terms containing s to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-6.5' to each side of the equation. 6.5 + -6.5 + s = 6.538348415 + -6.5 Combine like terms: 6.5 + -6.5 = 0.0 0.0 + s = 6.538348415 + -6.5 s = 6.538348415 + -6.5 Combine like terms: 6.538348415 + -6.5 = 0.038348415 s = 0.038348415 Simplifying s = 0.038348415

Subproblem 2

s + 6.5 = -6.538348415 Simplifying s + 6.5 = -6.538348415 Reorder the terms: 6.5 + s = -6.538348415 Solving 6.5 + s = -6.538348415 Solving for variable 's'. Move all terms containing s to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-6.5' to each side of the equation. 6.5 + -6.5 + s = -6.538348415 + -6.5 Combine like terms: 6.5 + -6.5 = 0.0 0.0 + s = -6.538348415 + -6.5 s = -6.538348415 + -6.5 Combine like terms: -6.538348415 + -6.5 = -13.038348415 s = -13.038348415 Simplifying s = -13.038348415
