Solving for variable 'd'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
4 + 4.5d + d2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-4' to each side of the equation.
4 + 4.5d + -4 + d2 = 0 + -4

Reorder the terms:
4 + -4 + 4.5d + d2 = 0 + -4

Combine like terms: 4 + -4 = 0
0 + 4.5d + d2 = 0 + -4
4.5d + d2 = 0 + -4

Combine like terms: 0 + -4 = -4
4.5d + d2 = -4

The d term is 4.5d.  Take half its coefficient (2.25).
Square it (5.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '5.0625' to each side of the equation.
4.5d + 5.0625 + d2 = -4 + 5.0625

Reorder the terms:
5.0625 + 4.5d + d2 = -4 + 5.0625

Combine like terms: -4 + 5.0625 = 1.0625
5.0625 + 4.5d + d2 = 1.0625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(d + 2.25)(d + 2.25) = 1.0625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.030776406

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(d + 2.25) equal to 1.030776406 and -1.030776406.

Subproblem 1

d + 2.25 = 1.030776406 Simplifying d + 2.25 = 1.030776406 Reorder the terms: 2.25 + d = 1.030776406 Solving 2.25 + d = 1.030776406 Solving for variable 'd'. Move all terms containing d to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-2.25' to each side of the equation. 2.25 + -2.25 + d = 1.030776406 + -2.25 Combine like terms: 2.25 + -2.25 = 0.00 0.00 + d = 1.030776406 + -2.25 d = 1.030776406 + -2.25 Combine like terms: 1.030776406 + -2.25 = -1.219223594 d = -1.219223594 Simplifying d = -1.219223594

Subproblem 2

d + 2.25 = -1.030776406 Simplifying d + 2.25 = -1.030776406 Reorder the terms: 2.25 + d = -1.030776406 Solving 2.25 + d = -1.030776406 Solving for variable 'd'. Move all terms containing d to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-2.25' to each side of the equation. 2.25 + -2.25 + d = -1.030776406 + -2.25 Combine like terms: 2.25 + -2.25 = 0.00 0.00 + d = -1.030776406 + -2.25 d = -1.030776406 + -2.25 Combine like terms: -1.030776406 + -2.25 = -3.280776406 d = -3.280776406 Simplifying d = -3.280776406
