Solving for variable 'y'.

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

Divide each side by '5'.
-1.8 + -1.4y + y2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1.8' to each side of the equation.
-1.8 + -1.4y + 1.8 + y2 = 0 + 1.8

Reorder the terms:
-1.8 + 1.8 + -1.4y + y2 = 0 + 1.8

Combine like terms: -1.8 + 1.8 = 0.0
0.0 + -1.4y + y2 = 0 + 1.8
-1.4y + y2 = 0 + 1.8

Combine like terms: 0 + 1.8 = 1.8
-1.4y + y2 = 1.8

The y term is -1.4y.  Take half its coefficient (-0.7).
Square it (0.49) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.49' to each side of the equation.
-1.4y + 0.49 + y2 = 1.8 + 0.49

Reorder the terms:
0.49 + -1.4y + y2 = 1.8 + 0.49

Combine like terms: 1.8 + 0.49 = 2.29
0.49 + -1.4y + y2 = 2.29

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(y + -0.7)(y + -0.7) = 2.29

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.513274595
