Solving for variable 'y'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
-2.5 + -2y + y2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '2.5' to each side of the equation.
-2.5 + -2y + 2.5 + y2 = 0 + 2.5

Reorder the terms:
-2.5 + 2.5 + -2y + y2 = 0 + 2.5

Combine like terms: -2.5 + 2.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -2y + y2 = 0 + 2.5
-2y + y2 = 0 + 2.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 2.5 = 2.5
-2y + y2 = 2.5

The y term is -2y.  Take half its coefficient (-1).
