Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '10'.
0.4 + -2.1x2 + x4 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.4' to each side of the equation.
0.4 + -2.1x2 + -0.4 + x4 = 0 + -0.4

Reorder the terms:
0.4 + -0.4 + -2.1x2 + x4 = 0 + -0.4

Combine like terms: 0.4 + -0.4 = 0.0
0.0 + -2.1x2 + x4 = 0 + -0.4
-2.1x2 + x4 = 0 + -0.4

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.4 = -0.4
-2.1x2 + x4 = -0.4

The x term is -2.1x2.  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.
-2.1x2 + 1.1025 + x4 = -0.4 + 1.1025

Reorder the terms:
1.1025 + -2.1x2 + x4 = -0.4 + 1.1025

Combine like terms: -0.4 + 1.1025 = 0.7025
1.1025 + -2.1x2 + x4 = 0.7025

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x2 + -1.05)(x2 + -1.05) = 0.7025

Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.838152731
