Solving for variable 'y'.

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

Divide each side by '4'.
1.75 + -5y + y2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-1.75' to each side of the equation.
1.75 + -5y + -1.75 + y2 = 0 + -1.75

Reorder the terms:
1.75 + -1.75 + -5y + y2 = 0 + -1.75

Combine like terms: 1.75 + -1.75 = 0.00
0.00 + -5y + y2 = 0 + -1.75
-5y + y2 = 0 + -1.75

Combine like terms: 0 + -1.75 = -1.75
-5y + y2 = -1.75

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 = -1.75 + 6.25

Reorder the terms:
6.25 + -5y + y2 = -1.75 + 6.25

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

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(y + -2.5)(y + -2.5) = 4.5
