Solving for variable 'b'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
-15 + -1.5b + b2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '15' to each side of the equation.
-15 + -1.5b + 15 + b2 = 0 + 15

Reorder the terms:
-15 + 15 + -1.5b + b2 = 0 + 15

Combine like terms: -15 + 15 = 0
0 + -1.5b + b2 = 0 + 15
-1.5b + b2 = 0 + 15

Combine like terms: 0 + 15 = 15
-1.5b + b2 = 15

The b term is -1.5b.  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.
-1.5b + 0.5625 + b2 = 15 + 0.5625

Reorder the terms:
0.5625 + -1.5b + b2 = 15 + 0.5625

Combine like terms: 15 + 0.5625 = 15.5625
0.5625 + -1.5b + b2 = 15.5625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(b + -0.75)(b + -0.75) = 15.5625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 3.94493346
