Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-17 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-17'.
3.764705882 + -3y + y2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-3.764705882' to each side of the equation.
3.764705882 + -3y + -3.764705882 + y2 = 0 + -3.764705882

Reorder the terms:
3.764705882 + -3.764705882 + -3y + y2 = 0 + -3.764705882

Combine like terms: 3.764705882 + -3.764705882 = 0.000000000
0.000000000 + -3y + y2 = 0 + -3.764705882
-3y + y2 = 0 + -3.764705882

Combine like terms: 0 + -3.764705882 = -3.764705882
-3y + y2 = -3.764705882

The y term is -3y.  Take half its coefficient (-1.5).
Square it (2.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '2.25' to each side of the equation.
-3y + 2.25 + y2 = -3.764705882 + 2.25

Reorder the terms:
2.25 + -3y + y2 = -3.764705882 + 2.25

Combine like terms: -3.764705882 + 2.25 = -1.514705882
2.25 + -3y + y2 = -1.514705882

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(y + -1.5)(y + -1.5) = -1.514705882

Can't calculate square root of the right side.

The solution to this equation could not be determined.
