Solving for variable 'x'.

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-2 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-2'.
-9 + 1.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '9' to each side of the equation.
-9 + 1.5x + 9 + x2 = 0 + 9

Reorder the terms:
-9 + 9 + 1.5x + x2 = 0 + 9

Combine like terms: -9 + 9 = 0
0 + 1.5x + x2 = 0 + 9
1.5x + x2 = 0 + 9

Combine like terms: 0 + 9 = 9
1.5x + x2 = 9

The x term is 1.5x.  Take half its coefficient (0.75).
Square it (0.5625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.5625' to each side of the equation.
1.5x + 0.5625 + x2 = 9 + 0.5625

Reorder the terms:
0.5625 + 1.5x + x2 = 9 + 0.5625

Combine like terms: 9 + 0.5625 = 9.5625
0.5625 + 1.5x + x2 = 9.5625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 0.75)(x + 0.75) = 9.5625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 3.092329219
