Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '25'.
0.36 + 1.6x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.36' to each side of the equation.
0.36 + 1.6x + -0.36 + x2 = 0 + -0.36

Reorder the terms:
0.36 + -0.36 + 1.6x + x2 = 0 + -0.36

Combine like terms: 0.36 + -0.36 = 0.00
0.00 + 1.6x + x2 = 0 + -0.36
1.6x + x2 = 0 + -0.36

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.36 = -0.36
1.6x + x2 = -0.36

The x term is 1.6x.  Take half its coefficient (0.8).
Square it (0.64) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.64' to each side of the equation.
1.6x + 0.64 + x2 = -0.36 + 0.64

Reorder the terms:
0.64 + 1.6x + x2 = -0.36 + 0.64

Combine like terms: -0.36 + 0.64 = 0.28
0.64 + 1.6x + x2 = 0.28

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 0.8)(x + 0.8) = 0.28
