Solving for variable 'f'.

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

Divide each side by '8'.
-0.125 + f + f2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.125' to each side of the equation.
-0.125 + f + 0.125 + f2 = 0 + 0.125

Reorder the terms:
-0.125 + 0.125 + f + f2 = 0 + 0.125

Combine like terms: -0.125 + 0.125 = 0.000
0.000 + f + f2 = 0 + 0.125
f + f2 = 0 + 0.125

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.125 = 0.125
f + f2 = 0.125

The f term is f.  Take half its coefficient (0.5).
Square it (0.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.25' to each side of the equation.
 + 0.25 + f2 = 0.125 + 0.25

Combine like terms:  + 0.25 = 1.25
1.25 + f2 = 0.125 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 0.125 + 0.25 = 0.375
1.25 + f2 = 0.375

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(f + 0.5)(f + 0.5) = 0.375

Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.612372436

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(f + 0.5) equal to 0.612372436 and -0.612372436.

Subproblem 1

f + 0.5 = 0.612372436 Simplifying f + 0.5 = 0.612372436 Reorder the terms: 0.5 + f = 0.612372436 Solving 0.5 + f = 0.612372436 Solving for variable 'f'. Move all terms containing f to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.5' to each side of the equation. 0.5 + -0.5 + f = 0.612372436 + -0.5 Combine like terms: 0.5 + -0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + f = 0.612372436 + -0.5 f = 0.612372436 + -0.5 Combine like terms: 0.612372436 + -0.5 = 0.112372436 f = 0.112372436 Simplifying f = 0.112372436

Subproblem 2

f + 0.5 = -0.612372436 Simplifying f + 0.5 = -0.612372436 Reorder the terms: 0.5 + f = -0.612372436 Solving 0.5 + f = -0.612372436 Solving for variable 'f'. Move all terms containing f to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.5' to each side of the equation. 0.5 + -0.5 + f = -0.612372436 + -0.5 Combine like terms: 0.5 + -0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + f = -0.612372436 + -0.5 f = -0.612372436 + -0.5 Combine like terms: -0.612372436 + -0.5 = -1.112372436 f = -1.112372436 Simplifying f = -1.112372436
