Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '-2'.
-0.5 + -2.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.5' to each side of the equation.
-0.5 + -2.5x + 0.5 + x2 = 0 + 0.5

Reorder the terms:
-0.5 + 0.5 + -2.5x + x2 = 0 + 0.5

Combine like terms: -0.5 + 0.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -2.5x + x2 = 0 + 0.5
-2.5x + x2 = 0 + 0.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.5 = 0.5
-2.5x + x2 = 0.5

The x term is -2.5x.  Take half its coefficient (-1.25).
Square it (1.5625) and add it to both sides.

Add '1.5625' to each side of the equation.
-2.5x + 1.5625 + x2 = 0.5 + 1.5625

Reorder the terms:
1.5625 + -2.5x + x2 = 0.5 + 1.5625

Combine like terms: 0.5 + 1.5625 = 2.0625
1.5625 + -2.5x + x2 = 2.0625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + -1.25)(x + -1.25) = 2.0625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.436140662
