Solving for variable 'k'.

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

Divide each side by '8'.
0.125 + -1k + k2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.125' to each side of the equation.
0.125 + -1k + -0.125 + k2 = 0 + -0.125

Reorder the terms:
0.125 + -0.125 + -1k + k2 = 0 + -0.125

Combine like terms: 0.125 + -0.125 = 0.000
0.000 + -1k + k2 = 0 + -0.125
-1k + k2 = 0 + -0.125

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.125 = -0.125
-1k + k2 = -0.125

The k term is -1k.  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.
-1k + 0.25 + k2 = -0.125 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + -1k + k2 = -0.125 + 0.25

Combine like terms: -0.125 + 0.25 = 0.125
0.25 + -1k + k2 = 0.125

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(k + -0.5)(k + -0.5) = 0.125

Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.353553391

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(k + -0.5) equal to 0.353553391 and -0.353553391.

Subproblem 1

k + -0.5 = 0.353553391 Simplifying k + -0.5 = 0.353553391 Reorder the terms: -0.5 + k = 0.353553391 Solving -0.5 + k = 0.353553391 Solving for variable 'k'. Move all terms containing k to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.5' to each side of the equation. -0.5 + 0.5 + k = 0.353553391 + 0.5 Combine like terms: -0.5 + 0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + k = 0.353553391 + 0.5 k = 0.353553391 + 0.5 Combine like terms: 0.353553391 + 0.5 = 0.853553391 k = 0.853553391 Simplifying k = 0.853553391

Subproblem 2

k + -0.5 = -0.353553391 Simplifying k + -0.5 = -0.353553391 Reorder the terms: -0.5 + k = -0.353553391 Solving -0.5 + k = -0.353553391 Solving for variable 'k'. Move all terms containing k to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.5' to each side of the equation. -0.5 + 0.5 + k = -0.353553391 + 0.5 Combine like terms: -0.5 + 0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + k = -0.353553391 + 0.5 k = -0.353553391 + 0.5 Combine like terms: -0.353553391 + 0.5 = 0.146446609 k = 0.146446609 Simplifying k = 0.146446609
