Solving for variable 'm'.

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

Divide each side by '5'.
-4.2 + 0.6m + m2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '4.2' to each side of the equation.
-4.2 + 0.6m + 4.2 + m2 = 0 + 4.2

Reorder the terms:
-4.2 + 4.2 + 0.6m + m2 = 0 + 4.2

Combine like terms: -4.2 + 4.2 = 0.0
0.0 + 0.6m + m2 = 0 + 4.2
0.6m + m2 = 0 + 4.2

Combine like terms: 0 + 4.2 = 4.2
0.6m + m2 = 4.2

The m term is 0.6m.  Take half its coefficient (0.3).
Square it (0.09) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.09' to each side of the equation.
0.6m + 0.09 + m2 = 4.2 + 0.09

Reorder the terms:
0.09 + 0.6m + m2 = 4.2 + 0.09

Combine like terms: 4.2 + 0.09 = 4.29
0.09 + 0.6m + m2 = 4.29

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(m + 0.3)(m + 0.3) = 4.29

Calculate the square root of the right side: 2.071231518

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(m + 0.3) equal to 2.071231518 and -2.071231518.

Subproblem 1

m + 0.3 = 2.071231518 Simplifying m + 0.3 = 2.071231518 Reorder the terms: 0.3 + m = 2.071231518 Solving 0.3 + m = 2.071231518 Solving for variable 'm'. Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.3' to each side of the equation. 0.3 + -0.3 + m = 2.071231518 + -0.3 Combine like terms: 0.3 + -0.3 = 0.0 0.0 + m = 2.071231518 + -0.3 m = 2.071231518 + -0.3 Combine like terms: 2.071231518 + -0.3 = 1.771231518 m = 1.771231518 Simplifying m = 1.771231518

Subproblem 2
