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

Divide each side by '10'.
-0.9 + 2.1x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.9' to each side of the equation.
-0.9 + 2.1x + 0.9 + x2 = 0 + 0.9

Reorder the terms:
-0.9 + 0.9 + 2.1x + x2 = 0 + 0.9

Combine like terms: -0.9 + 0.9 = 0.0
0.0 + 2.1x + x2 = 0 + 0.9
2.1x + x2 = 0 + 0.9

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.9 = 0.9
2.1x + x2 = 0.9

The x term is 2.1x.  Take half its coefficient (1.05).
Square it (1.1025) and add it to both sides.

Add '1.1025' to each side of the equation.
2.1x + 1.1025 + x2 = 0.9 + 1.1025

Reorder the terms:
1.1025 + 2.1x + x2 = 0.9 + 1.1025

Combine like terms: 0.9 + 1.1025 = 2.0025
1.1025 + 2.1x + x2 = 2.0025
