Solving for variable 'f'.

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

Divide each side by '5'.
-0.8 + 1.4f + f2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.8' to each side of the equation.
-0.8 + 1.4f + 0.8 + f2 = 0 + 0.8

Reorder the terms:
-0.8 + 0.8 + 1.4f + f2 = 0 + 0.8

Combine like terms: -0.8 + 0.8 = 0.0
0.0 + 1.4f + f2 = 0 + 0.8
1.4f + f2 = 0 + 0.8

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.8 = 0.8
1.4f + f2 = 0.8

The f term is 1.4f.  Take half its coefficient (0.7).
Square it (0.49) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.49' to each side of the equation.
1.4f + 0.49 + f2 = 0.8 + 0.49

Reorder the terms:
0.49 + 1.4f + f2 = 0.8 + 0.49

Combine like terms: 0.8 + 0.49 = 1.29
0.49 + 1.4f + f2 = 1.29

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(f + 0.7)(f + 0.7) = 1.29

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.135781669
