Solving for variable 's'.

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

Divide each side by '4'.
-2.75 + 6s + s2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '2.75' to each side of the equation.
-2.75 + 6s + 2.75 + s2 = 0 + 2.75

Reorder the terms:
-2.75 + 2.75 + 6s + s2 = 0 + 2.75

Combine like terms: -2.75 + 2.75 = 0.00
0.00 + 6s + s2 = 0 + 2.75
6s + s2 = 0 + 2.75

Combine like terms: 0 + 2.75 = 2.75
6s + s2 = 2.75

The s term is 6s.  Take half its coefficient (3).
Square it (9) and add it to both sides.

Add '9' to each side of the equation.
6s + 9 + s2 = 2.75 + 9

Reorder the terms:
9 + 6s + s2 = 2.75 + 9

Combine like terms: 2.75 + 9 = 11.75
9 + 6s + s2 = 11.75

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(s + 3)(s + 3) = 11.75

Calculate the square root of the right side: 3.4278273

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(s + 3) equal to 3.4278273 and -3.4278273.

Subproblem 1

s + 3 = 3.4278273 Simplifying s + 3 = 3.4278273 Reorder the terms: 3 + s = 3.4278273 Solving 3 + s = 3.4278273 Solving for variable 's'. Move all terms containing s to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-3' to each side of the equation. 3 + -3 + s = 3.4278273 + -3 Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0 0 + s = 3.4278273 + -3 s = 3.4278273 + -3 Combine like terms: 3.4278273 + -3 = 0.4278273 s = 0.4278273 Simplifying s = 0.4278273
