Solving for variable 'k'.

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

Divide each side by '4'.
-0.25 + 1.5k + k2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.25' to each side of the equation.
-0.25 + 1.5k + 0.25 + k2 = 0 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
-0.25 + 0.25 + 1.5k + k2 = 0 + 0.25

Combine like terms: -0.25 + 0.25 = 0.00
0.00 + 1.5k + k2 = 0 + 0.25
1.5k + k2 = 0 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.25 = 0.25
1.5k + k2 = 0.25

The k term is 1.5k.  Take half its coefficient (0.75).
Square it (0.5625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.5625' to each side of the equation.
1.5k + 0.5625 + k2 = 0.25 + 0.5625

Reorder the terms:
0.5625 + 1.5k + k2 = 0.25 + 0.5625

Combine like terms: 0.25 + 0.5625 = 0.8125
0.5625 + 1.5k + k2 = 0.8125

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(k + 0.75)(k + 0.75) = 0.8125

Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.901387819
