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

Divide each side by '2'.
-12 + -8.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '12' to each side of the equation.
-12 + -8.5x + 12 + x2 = 0 + 12

Reorder the terms:
-12 + 12 + -8.5x + x2 = 0 + 12

Combine like terms: -12 + 12 = 0
0 + -8.5x + x2 = 0 + 12
-8.5x + x2 = 0 + 12

Combine like terms: 0 + 12 = 12
-8.5x + x2 = 12

The x term is -8.5x.  Take half its coefficient (-4.25).
Square it (18.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '18.0625' to each side of the equation.
-8.5x + 18.0625 + x2 = 12 + 18.0625

Reorder the terms:
18.0625 + -8.5x + x2 = 12 + 18.0625

Combine like terms: 12 + 18.0625 = 30.0625
