Solving for variable 'm'.

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

Divide each side by '5'.
1.6 + -3.6m + m2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-1.6' to each side of the equation.
1.6 + -3.6m + -1.6 + m2 = 0 + -1.6

Reorder the terms:
1.6 + -1.6 + -3.6m + m2 = 0 + -1.6

Combine like terms: 1.6 + -1.6 = 0.0
0.0 + -3.6m + m2 = 0 + -1.6
-3.6m + m2 = 0 + -1.6

Combine like terms: 0 + -1.6 = -1.6
-3.6m + m2 = -1.6

The m term is -3.6m.  Take half its coefficient (-1.8).
Square it (3.24) and add it to both sides.

Add '3.24' to each side of the equation.
-3.6m + 3.24 + m2 = -1.6 + 3.24

Reorder the terms:
3.24 + -3.6m + m2 = -1.6 + 3.24

Combine like terms: -1.6 + 3.24 = 1.64
3.24 + -3.6m + m2 = 1.64

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(m + -1.8)(m + -1.8) = 1.64

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.280624847
