Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '0.1'.
10 + 5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-10' to each side of the equation.
10 + 5x + -10 + x2 = 0 + -10

Reorder the terms:
10 + -10 + 5x + x2 = 0 + -10

Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0
0 + 5x + x2 = 0 + -10
5x + x2 = 0 + -10

Combine like terms: 0 + -10 = -10
5x + x2 = -10

The x term is 5x.  Take half its coefficient (2.5).
Square it (6.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '6.25' to each side of the equation.
5x + 6.25 + x2 = -10 + 6.25
