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

Divide each side by '-2'.
-33 + -1.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '33' to each side of the equation.
-33 + -1.5x + 33 + x2 = 0 + 33

Reorder the terms:
-33 + 33 + -1.5x + x2 = 0 + 33

Combine like terms: -33 + 33 = 0
0 + -1.5x + x2 = 0 + 33
-1.5x + x2 = 0 + 33

Combine like terms: 0 + 33 = 33
-1.5x + x2 = 33

The x term is -1.5x.  Take half its coefficient (-0.75).
Square it (0.5625) and add it to both sides.
