Solving for variable 'n'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
4 + 4.5n + n2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-4' to each side of the equation.
4 + 4.5n + -4 + n2 = 0 + -4

Reorder the terms:
4 + -4 + 4.5n + n2 = 0 + -4

Combine like terms: 4 + -4 = 0
0 + 4.5n + n2 = 0 + -4
4.5n + n2 = 0 + -4

Combine like terms: 0 + -4 = -4
4.5n + n2 = -4

The n term is 4.5n.  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.
4.5n + 5.0625 + n2 = -4 + 5.0625

Reorder the terms:
5.0625 + 4.5n + n2 = -4 + 5.0625

Combine like terms: -4 + 5.0625 = 1.0625
5.0625 + 4.5n + n2 = 1.0625
