Solving for variable 'l'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
-84 + -4.5l + l2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '84' to each side of the equation.
-84 + -4.5l + 84 + l2 = 0 + 84

Reorder the terms:
-84 + 84 + -4.5l + l2 = 0 + 84

Combine like terms: -84 + 84 = 0
0 + -4.5l + l2 = 0 + 84
-4.5l + l2 = 0 + 84

Combine like terms: 0 + 84 = 84
-4.5l + l2 = 84

The l term is -4.5l.  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.
-4.5l + 5.0625 + l2 = 84 + 5.0625

Reorder the terms:
5.0625 + -4.5l + l2 = 84 + 5.0625

Combine like terms: 84 + 5.0625 = 89.0625
5.0625 + -4.5l + l2 = 89.0625
