Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
-40 + 1.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '40' to each side of the equation.
-40 + 1.5x + 40 + x2 = 0 + 40

Reorder the terms:
-40 + 40 + 1.5x + x2 = 0 + 40

Combine like terms: -40 + 40 = 0
0 + 1.5x + x2 = 0 + 40
1.5x + x2 = 0 + 40

Combine like terms: 0 + 40 = 40
1.5x + x2 = 40

The x term is 1.5x.  Take half its coefficient (0.75).
Square it (0.5625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.5625' to each side of the equation.
1.5x + 0.5625 + x2 = 40 + 0.5625

Reorder the terms:
0.5625 + 1.5x + x2 = 40 + 0.5625

Combine like terms: 40 + 0.5625 = 40.5625
0.5625 + 1.5x + x2 = 40.5625
