Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '10'.
-0.7 + 0.4x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.7' to each side of the equation.
-0.7 + 0.4x + 0.7 + x2 = 0 + 0.7

Reorder the terms:
-0.7 + 0.7 + 0.4x + x2 = 0 + 0.7

Combine like terms: -0.7 + 0.7 = 0.0
0.0 + 0.4x + x2 = 0 + 0.7
0.4x + x2 = 0 + 0.7

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.7 = 0.7
0.4x + x2 = 0.7

The x term is 0.4x.  Take half its coefficient (0.2).
Square it (0.04) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.04' to each side of the equation.
0.4x + 0.04 + x2 = 0.7 + 0.04

Reorder the terms:
0.04 + 0.4x + x2 = 0.7 + 0.04

Combine like terms: 0.7 + 0.04 = 0.74
0.04 + 0.4x + x2 = 0.74

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 0.2)(x + 0.2) = 0.74

Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.860232527
