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

Divide each side by '2'.
-0.45 + 0.3x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.45' to each side of the equation.
-0.45 + 0.3x + 0.45 + x2 = 0 + 0.45

Reorder the terms:
-0.45 + 0.45 + 0.3x + x2 = 0 + 0.45

Combine like terms: -0.45 + 0.45 = 0.00
0.00 + 0.3x + x2 = 0 + 0.45
0.3x + x2 = 0 + 0.45

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.45 = 0.45
0.3x + x2 = 0.45

The x term is 0.3x.  Take half its coefficient (0.15).
Square it (0.0225) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.0225' to each side of the equation.
0.3x + 0.0225 + x2 = 0.45 + 0.0225

Reorder the terms:
0.0225 + 0.3x + x2 = 0.45 + 0.0225

Combine like terms: 0.45 + 0.0225 = 0.4725
0.0225 + 0.3x + x2 = 0.4725
