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

Divide each side by '6'.
-0.6666666667 + -6.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.6666666667' to each side of the equation.
-0.6666666667 + -6.5x + 0.6666666667 + x2 = 0 + 0.6666666667

Reorder the terms:
-0.6666666667 + 0.6666666667 + -6.5x + x2 = 0 + 0.6666666667

Combine like terms: -0.6666666667 + 0.6666666667 = 0.0000000000
