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

Divide each side by '10'.
-2.4 + -0.7x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '2.4' to each side of the equation.
-2.4 + -0.7x + 2.4 + x2 = 0 + 2.4

Reorder the terms:
-2.4 + 2.4 + -0.7x + x2 = 0 + 2.4

Combine like terms: -2.4 + 2.4 = 0.0
0.0 + -0.7x + x2 = 0 + 2.4
-0.7x + x2 = 0 + 2.4

Combine like terms: 0 + 2.4 = 2.4
-0.7x + x2 = 2.4

The x term is -0.7x.  Take half its coefficient (-0.35).
Square it (0.1225) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.1225' to each side of the equation.
-0.7x + 0.1225 + x2 = 2.4 + 0.1225

Reorder the terms:
0.1225 + -0.7x + x2 = 2.4 + 0.1225

Combine like terms: 2.4 + 0.1225 = 2.5225
0.1225 + -0.7x + x2 = 2.5225
