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

Divide each side by '-2'.
1.5 + -4x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-1.5' to each side of the equation.
1.5 + -4x + -1.5 + x2 = 0 + -1.5

Reorder the terms:
1.5 + -1.5 + -4x + x2 = 0 + -1.5

Combine like terms: 1.5 + -1.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -4x + x2 = 0 + -1.5
-4x + x2 = 0 + -1.5
