Solving for variable 'k'.

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

Divide each side by '5'.
-9.8 + 1.4k + k2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '9.8' to each side of the equation.
-9.8 + 1.4k + 9.8 + k2 = 0 + 9.8

Reorder the terms:
-9.8 + 9.8 + 1.4k + k2 = 0 + 9.8

Combine like terms: -9.8 + 9.8 = 0.0
0.0 + 1.4k + k2 = 0 + 9.8
1.4k + k2 = 0 + 9.8

Combine like terms: 0 + 9.8 = 9.8
1.4k + k2 = 9.8

The k term is 1.4k.  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.
1.4k + 0.49 + k2 = 9.8 + 0.49

Reorder the terms:
0.49 + 1.4k + k2 = 9.8 + 0.49

Combine like terms: 9.8 + 0.49 = 10.29
0.49 + 1.4k + k2 = 10.29

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(k + 0.7)(k + 0.7) = 10.29
