Solving for variable 'y'.

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

Divide each side by '8'.
-0.75 + 0.375y + y2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.75' to each side of the equation.
-0.75 + 0.375y + 0.75 + y2 = 0 + 0.75

Reorder the terms:
-0.75 + 0.75 + 0.375y + y2 = 0 + 0.75

Combine like terms: -0.75 + 0.75 = 0.00
0.00 + 0.375y + y2 = 0 + 0.75
0.375y + y2 = 0 + 0.75

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.75 = 0.75
0.375y + y2 = 0.75

The y term is 0.375y.  Take half its coefficient (0.1875).
Square it (0.03515625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.03515625' to each side of the equation.
0.375y + 0.03515625 + y2 = 0.75 + 0.03515625

Reorder the terms:
0.03515625 + 0.375y + y2 = 0.75 + 0.03515625

Combine like terms: 0.75 + 0.03515625 = 0.78515625
0.03515625 + 0.375y + y2 = 0.78515625
