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

Divide each side by '2'.
-28.5 + -13.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '28.5' to each side of the equation.
-28.5 + -13.5x + 28.5 + x2 = 0 + 28.5

Reorder the terms:
-28.5 + 28.5 + -13.5x + x2 = 0 + 28.5

Combine like terms: -28.5 + 28.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -13.5x + x2 = 0 + 28.5
-13.5x + x2 = 0 + 28.5
