Solving for variable 'x'.

Combine like terms: 154 + 70 = 224
224 + -3x + -1x2 = -70 + 3x + x2 + 70 + -3x + -1x2

Reorder the terms:
224 + -3x + -1x2 = -70 + 70 + 3x + -3x + x2 + -1x2

Combine like terms: -70 + 70 = 0
224 + -3x + -1x2 = 0 + 3x + -3x + x2 + -1x2
224 + -3x + -1x2 = 3x + -3x + x2 + -1x2

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0
224 + -3x + -1x2 = 0 + x2 + -1x2
224 + -3x + -1x2 = x2 + -1x2

224 + -3x + -1x2 = 0

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-1 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-1'.
-224 + 3x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '224' to each side of the equation.
-224 + 3x + 224 + x2 = 0 + 224

Reorder the terms:
-224 + 224 + 3x + x2 = 0 + 224

Combine like terms: -224 + 224 = 0
0 + 3x + x2 = 0 + 224
3x + x2 = 0 + 224

Combine like terms: 0 + 224 = 224
3x + x2 = 224

The x term is 3x.  Take half its coefficient (1.5).
Square it (2.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '2.25' to each side of the equation.
3x + 2.25 + x2 = 224 + 2.25

Reorder the terms:
2.25 + 3x + x2 = 224 + 2.25

Combine like terms: 224 + 2.25 = 226.25
2.25 + 3x + x2 = 226.25
