Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '4' to each side of the equation.
-4 + -1y + 4 + y2 = 0 + 4

Reorder the terms:
-4 + 4 + -1y + y2 = 0 + 4

Combine like terms: -4 + 4 = 0
0 + -1y + y2 = 0 + 4
-1y + y2 = 0 + 4

Combine like terms: 0 + 4 = 4
-1y + y2 = 4

The y term is -1y.  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.
-1y + 0.25 + y2 = 4 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + -1y + y2 = 4 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 4 + 0.25 = 4.25
0.25 + -1y + y2 = 4.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(y + -0.5)(y + -0.5) = 4.25
