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

Divide each side by '0.25'.
-96 + 4l + l2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '96' to each side of the equation.
-96 + 4l + 96 + l2 = 0 + 96

Reorder the terms:
-96 + 96 + 4l + l2 = 0 + 96

Combine like terms: -96 + 96 = 0
0 + 4l + l2 = 0 + 96
4l + l2 = 0 + 96

Combine like terms: 0 + 96 = 96
4l + l2 = 96

The l term is 4l.  Take half its coefficient (2).
Square it (4) and add it to both sides.

Add '4' to each side of the equation.
4l + 4 + l2 = 96 + 4

Reorder the terms:
4 + 4l + l2 = 96 + 4

Combine like terms: 96 + 4 = 100
4 + 4l + l2 = 100

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(l + 2) equal to 10 and -10.

Subproblem 1

l + 2 = 10 Simplifying l + 2 = 10 Reorder the terms: 2 + l = 10 Solving 2 + l = 10 Solving for variable 'l'. Move all terms containing l to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-2' to each side of the equation. 2 + -2 + l = 10 + -2 Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0 0 + l = 10 + -2 l = 10 + -2 Combine like terms: 10 + -2 = 8 l = 8 Simplifying l = 8

Subproblem 2

l + 2 = -10 Simplifying l + 2 = -10 Reorder the terms: 2 + l = -10 Solving 2 + l = -10 Solving for variable 'l'. Move all terms containing l to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-2' to each side of the equation. 2 + -2 + l = -10 + -2 Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0 0 + l = -10 + -2 l = -10 + -2 Combine like terms: -10 + -2 = -12 l = -12 Simplifying l = -12

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. l = {8, -12}
