Simplifying
(x + 2)(2x + 5) = 54

Reorder the terms:
(2 + x)(2x + 5) = 54

Reorder the terms:
(2 + x)(5 + 2x) = 54

Multiply (2 + x) * (5 + 2x)
(2(5 + 2x) + x(5 + 2x)) = 54
((5 * 2 + 2x * 2) + x(5 + 2x)) = 54
((10 + 4x) + x(5 + 2x)) = 54
(10 + 4x + (5 * x + 2x * x)) = 54
(10 + 4x + (5x + 2x2)) = 54

Combine like terms: 4x + 5x = 9x
(10 + 9x + 2x2) = 54

10 + -54 + 9x + 2x2 = 54 + -54

Combine like terms: 10 + -54 = -44
-44 + 9x + 2x2 = 54 + -54

Combine like terms: 54 + -54 = 0
-44 + 9x + 2x2 = 0

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

Divide each side by '2'.
-22 + 4.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '22' to each side of the equation.
-22 + 4.5x + 22 + x2 = 0 + 22

Reorder the terms:
-22 + 22 + 4.5x + x2 = 0 + 22

Combine like terms: -22 + 22 = 0
0 + 4.5x + x2 = 0 + 22
4.5x + x2 = 0 + 22

Combine like terms: 0 + 22 = 22
4.5x + x2 = 22

The x term is 4.5x.  Take half its coefficient (2.25).
Square it (5.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '5.0625' to each side of the equation.
4.5x + 5.0625 + x2 = 22 + 5.0625
