Simplifying
(2x + 1)(2x + -3) = 2.5

Reorder the terms:
(1 + 2x)(2x + -3) = 2.5

Reorder the terms:
(1 + 2x)(-3 + 2x) = 2.5

Multiply (1 + 2x) * (-3 + 2x)
(1(-3 + 2x) + 2x * (-3 + 2x)) = 2.5
((-3 * 1 + 2x * 1) + 2x * (-3 + 2x)) = 2.5
((-3 + 2x) + 2x * (-3 + 2x)) = 2.5
(-3 + 2x + (-3 * 2x + 2x * 2x)) = 2.5
(-3 + 2x + (-6x + 4x2)) = 2.5

Combine like terms: 2x + -6x = -4x
(-3 + -4x + 4x2) = 2.5

Solving
-3 + -4x + 4x2 = 2.5

Solving for variable 'x'.

Reorder the terms:
-3 + -2.5 + -4x + 4x2 = 2.5 + -2.5

Combine like terms: -3 + -2.5 = -5.5
-5.5 + -4x + 4x2 = 2.5 + -2.5

Combine like terms: 2.5 + -2.5 = 0.0
-5.5 + -4x + 4x2 = 0.0

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

Divide each side by '4'.
-1.375 + -1x + x2 = 0.0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1.375' to each side of the equation.
-1.375 + -1x + 1.375 + x2 = 0.0 + 1.375

Reorder the terms:
-1.375 + 1.375 + -1x + x2 = 0.0 + 1.375

Combine like terms: -1.375 + 1.375 = 0.000
0.000 + -1x + x2 = 0.0 + 1.375
-1x + x2 = 0.0 + 1.375

Combine like terms: 0.0 + 1.375 = 1.375
-1x + x2 = 1.375

The x term is -1x.  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.
-1x + 0.25 + x2 = 1.375 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + -1x + x2 = 1.375 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 1.375 + 0.25 = 1.625
0.25 + -1x + x2 = 1.625
