Solving for variable 'd'.

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

Divide each side by '5'.
-1 + -0.4d + d2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
-1 + -0.4d + 1 + d2 = 0 + 1

Reorder the terms:
-1 + 1 + -0.4d + d2 = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0
0 + -0.4d + d2 = 0 + 1
-0.4d + d2 = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: 0 + 1 = 1
-0.4d + d2 = 1

The d term is -0.4d.  Take half its coefficient (-0.2).
Square it (0.04) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.04' to each side of the equation.
-0.4d + 0.04 + d2 = 1 + 0.04

Reorder the terms:
0.04 + -0.4d + d2 = 1 + 0.04

Combine like terms: 1 + 0.04 = 1.04
0.04 + -0.4d + d2 = 1.04

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(d + -0.2)(d + -0.2) = 1.04

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.019803903

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(d + -0.2) equal to 1.019803903 and -1.019803903.

Subproblem 1

d + -0.2 = 1.019803903 Simplifying d + -0.2 = 1.019803903 Reorder the terms: -0.2 + d = 1.019803903 Solving -0.2 + d = 1.019803903 Solving for variable 'd'. Move all terms containing d to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.2' to each side of the equation. -0.2 + 0.2 + d = 1.019803903 + 0.2 Combine like terms: -0.2 + 0.2 = 0.0 0.0 + d = 1.019803903 + 0.2 d = 1.019803903 + 0.2 Combine like terms: 1.019803903 + 0.2 = 1.219803903 d = 1.219803903 Simplifying d = 1.219803903

Subproblem 2

d + -0.2 = -1.019803903 Simplifying d + -0.2 = -1.019803903 Reorder the terms: -0.2 + d = -1.019803903 Solving -0.2 + d = -1.019803903 Solving for variable 'd'. Move all terms containing d to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.2' to each side of the equation. -0.2 + 0.2 + d = -1.019803903 + 0.2 Combine like terms: -0.2 + 0.2 = 0.0 0.0 + d = -1.019803903 + 0.2 d = -1.019803903 + 0.2 Combine like terms: -1.019803903 + 0.2 = -0.819803903 d = -0.819803903 Simplifying d = -0.819803903

Solution
