15 + -6p + 2p2 = 0

Solving for variable 'p'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
7.5 + -3p + p2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-7.5' to each side of the equation.
7.5 + -3p + -7.5 + p2 = 0 + -7.5

Reorder the terms:
7.5 + -7.5 + -3p + p2 = 0 + -7.5

Combine like terms: 7.5 + -7.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -3p + p2 = 0 + -7.5
-3p + p2 = 0 + -7.5

Combine like terms: 0 + -7.5 = -7.5
-3p + p2 = -7.5

The p term is -3p.  Take half its coefficient (-1.5).
Square it (2.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '2.25' to each side of the equation.
-3p + 2.25 + p2 = -7.5 + 2.25

Reorder the terms:
2.25 + -3p + p2 = -7.5 + 2.25

Combine like terms: -7.5 + 2.25 = -5.25
2.25 + -3p + p2 = -5.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(p + -1.5)(p + -1.5) = -5.25

Can't calculate square root of the right side.
