-24 + 1x + 2x2 = 0

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

Divide each side by '2'.
-12 + 0.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '12' to each side of the equation.
-12 + 0.5x + 12 + x2 = 0 + 12

Reorder the terms:
-12 + 12 + 0.5x + x2 = 0 + 12

Combine like terms: -12 + 12 = 0
0 + 0.5x + x2 = 0 + 12
0.5x + x2 = 0 + 12

Combine like terms: 0 + 12 = 12
0.5x + x2 = 12

The x term is 0.5x.  Take half its coefficient (0.25).
Square it (0.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.0625' to each side of the equation.
0.5x + 0.0625 + x2 = 12 + 0.0625

Reorder the terms:
0.0625 + 0.5x + x2 = 12 + 0.0625

Combine like terms: 12 + 0.0625 = 12.0625
0.0625 + 0.5x + x2 = 12.0625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 0.25)(x + 0.25) = 12.0625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 3.473110997
