Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '0.2'.
-1.5 + 0.2x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1.5' to each side of the equation.
-1.5 + 0.2x + 1.5 + x2 = 0 + 1.5

Reorder the terms:
-1.5 + 1.5 + 0.2x + x2 = 0 + 1.5

Combine like terms: -1.5 + 1.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 0.2x + x2 = 0 + 1.5
0.2x + x2 = 0 + 1.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 1.5 = 1.5
0.2x + x2 = 1.5

The x term is 0.2x.  Take half its coefficient (0.1).
Square it (0.01) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.01' to each side of the equation.
0.2x + 0.01 + x2 = 1.5 + 0.01

Reorder the terms:
0.01 + 0.2x + x2 = 1.5 + 0.01

Combine like terms: 1.5 + 0.01 = 1.51
0.01 + 0.2x + x2 = 1.51
