Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-4' to each side of the equation.
4 + -0.4k + -4 + k2 = 0.0 + -4

Reorder the terms:
4 + -4 + -0.4k + k2 = 0.0 + -4

Combine like terms: 4 + -4 = 0
0 + -0.4k + k2 = 0.0 + -4
-0.4k + k2 = 0.0 + -4

Combine like terms: 0.0 + -4 = -4
-0.4k + k2 = -4

The k term is -0.4k.  Take half its coefficient (-0.2).
Square it (0.04) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.04' to each side of the equation.
-0.4k + 0.04 + k2 = -4 + 0.04
