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'.
5 + -4.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-5' to each side of the equation.
5 + -4.5x + -5 + x2 = 0 + -5

Reorder the terms:
5 + -5 + -4.5x + x2 = 0 + -5

Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0
0 + -4.5x + x2 = 0 + -5
-4.5x + x2 = 0 + -5

-4.5x + x2 = -5

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 = -5 + 5.0625

Reorder the terms:
5.0625 + -4.5x + x2 = -5 + 5.0625

Combine like terms: -5 + 5.0625 = 0.0625
5.0625 + -4.5x + x2 = 0.0625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + -2.25)(x + -2.25) = 0.0625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.25

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + -2.25) equal to 0.25 and -0.25.

Subproblem 1

x + -2.25 = 0.25 Simplifying x + -2.25 = 0.25 Reorder the terms: -2.25 + x = 0.25 Solving -2.25 + x = 0.25 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '2.25' to each side of the equation. -2.25 + 2.25 + x = 0.25 + 2.25 Combine like terms: -2.25 + 2.25 = 0.00 0.00 + x = 0.25 + 2.25 x = 0.25 + 2.25 Combine like terms: 0.25 + 2.25 = 2.5 x = 2.5 Simplifying x = 2.5

Subproblem 2

x + -2.25 = -0.25 Simplifying x + -2.25 = -0.25 Reorder the terms: -2.25 + x = -0.25 Solving -2.25 + x = -0.25 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '2.25' to each side of the equation. -2.25 + 2.25 + x = -0.25 + 2.25 Combine like terms: -2.25 + 2.25 = 0.00 0.00 + x = -0.25 + 2.25 x = -0.25 + 2.25 Combine like terms: -0.25 + 2.25 = 2 x = 2 Simplifying x = 2

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. x = {2.5, 2}
