Solving for variable 'x'.

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-5 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-5'.
-0.2 + 1.2x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.2' to each side of the equation.
-0.2 + 1.2x + 0.2 + x2 = 0 + 0.2

Reorder the terms:
-0.2 + 0.2 + 1.2x + x2 = 0 + 0.2

Combine like terms: -0.2 + 0.2 = 0.0
0.0 + 1.2x + x2 = 0 + 0.2
1.2x + x2 = 0 + 0.2

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.2 = 0.2
1.2x + x2 = 0.2

The x term is 1.2x.  Take half its coefficient (0.6).
Square it (0.36) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.36' to each side of the equation.
1.2x + 0.36 + x2 = 0.2 + 0.36

Reorder the terms:
0.36 + 1.2x + x2 = 0.2 + 0.36

Combine like terms: 0.2 + 0.36 = 0.56
0.36 + 1.2x + x2 = 0.56

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 0.6)(x + 0.6) = 0.56

Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.748331477
