Solving for variable 'k'.

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

Divide each side by '5'.
-25 + 0.2k + k2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '25' to each side of the equation.
-25 + 0.2k + 25 + k2 = 0 + 25

Reorder the terms:
-25 + 25 + 0.2k + k2 = 0 + 25

Combine like terms: -25 + 25 = 0
0 + 0.2k + k2 = 0 + 25
0.2k + k2 = 0 + 25

Combine like terms: 0 + 25 = 25
0.2k + k2 = 25

The k term is k.  Take half its coefficient (0.5).
Square it (0.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.25' to each side of the equation.
0.2k + 0.25 + k2 = 25 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + 0.2k + k2 = 25 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 25 + 0.25 = 25.25
0.25 + 0.2k + k2 = 25.25
