Solving for variable 'r'.

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

Divide each side by '5'.
5.2 + 5r + r2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-5.2' to each side of the equation.
5.2 + 5r + -5.2 + r2 = 0 + -5.2

Reorder the terms:
5.2 + -5.2 + 5r + r2 = 0 + -5.2

Combine like terms: 5.2 + -5.2 = 0.0
0.0 + 5r + r2 = 0 + -5.2
5r + r2 = 0 + -5.2

Combine like terms: 0 + -5.2 = -5.2
5r + r2 = -5.2

The r term is 5r.  Take half its coefficient (2.5).
Square it (6.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '6.25' to each side of the equation.
5r + 6.25 + r2 = -5.2 + 6.25

Reorder the terms:
6.25 + 5r + r2 = -5.2 + 6.25

Combine like terms: -5.2 + 6.25 = 1.05
6.25 + 5r + r2 = 1.05

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(r + 2.5)(r + 2.5) = 1.05

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.024695077
