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

Divide each side by '4'.
0.25 + -1.75y + y2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.25' to each side of the equation.
0.25 + -1.75y + -0.25 + y2 = 0 + -0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + -0.25 + -1.75y + y2 = 0 + -0.25

Combine like terms: 0.25 + -0.25 = 0.00
0.00 + -1.75y + y2 = 0 + -0.25
-1.75y + y2 = 0 + -0.25

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.25 = -0.25
-1.75y + y2 = -0.25

The y term is -1.75y.  Take half its coefficient (-0.875).
Square it (0.765625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.765625' to each side of the equation.
-1.75y + 0.765625 + y2 = -0.25 + 0.765625

Reorder the terms:
0.765625 + -1.75y + y2 = -0.25 + 0.765625

Combine like terms: -0.25 + 0.765625 = 0.515625
0.765625 + -1.75y + y2 = 0.515625
