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

Divide each side by '2'.
0.5 + 6.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.5' to each side of the equation.
0.5 + 6.5x + -0.5 + x2 = 0 + -0.5

Reorder the terms:
0.5 + -0.5 + 6.5x + x2 = 0 + -0.5

Combine like terms: 0.5 + -0.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 6.5x + x2 = 0 + -0.5
6.5x + x2 = 0 + -0.5

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.5 = -0.5
6.5x + x2 = -0.5

The x term is 6.5x.  Take half its coefficient (3.25).
Square it (10.5625) and add it to both sides.

Add '10.5625' to each side of the equation.
6.5x + 10.5625 + x2 = -0.5 + 10.5625

Reorder the terms:
10.5625 + 6.5x + x2 = -0.5 + 10.5625

Combine like terms: -0.5 + 10.5625 = 10.0625
10.5625 + 6.5x + x2 = 10.0625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 3.25)(x + 3.25) = 10.0625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 3.172144385

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + 3.25) equal to 3.172144385 and -3.172144385.

Subproblem 1
x + 3.25 = 3.172144385

Simplifying
x + 3.25 = 3.172144385

Reorder the terms:
3.25 + x = 3.172144385

Solving
3.25 + x = 3.172144385

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3.25' to each side of the equation.
3.25 + -3.25 + x = 3.172144385 + -3.25

Combine like terms: 3.25 + -3.25 = 0.00
0.00 + x = 3.172144385 + -3.25
x = 3.172144385 + -3.25

Combine like terms: 3.172144385 + -3.25 = -0.077855615
x = -0.077855615

Simplifying
x = -0.077855615

Subproblem 2
x + 3.25 = -3.172144385

Simplifying
x + 3.25 = -3.172144385

Reorder the terms:
3.25 + x = -3.172144385

Solving
3.25 + x = -3.172144385

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3.25' to each side of the equation.
3.25 + -3.25 + x = -3.172144385 + -3.25

Combine like terms: 3.25 + -3.25 = 0.00
0.00 + x = -3.172144385 + -3.25
x = -3.172144385 + -3.25

Combine like terms: -3.172144385 + -3.25 = -6.422144385
x = -6.422144385
