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 + -0.2m + m2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
-1 + -0.2m + 1 + m2 = 0 + 1

Reorder the terms:
-1 + 1 + -0.2m + m2 = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0
0 + -0.2m + m2 = 0 + 1
-0.2m + m2 = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: 0 + 1 = 1
-0.2m + m2 = 1

The m term is -0.2m.  Take half its coefficient (-0.1).
Square it (0.01) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.01' to each side of the equation.
-0.2m + 0.01 + m2 = 1 + 0.01

Reorder the terms:
0.01 + -0.2m + m2 = 1 + 0.01

Combine like terms: 1 + 0.01 = 1.01
0.01 + -0.2m + m2 = 1.01
