Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
0.5 + 4.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.5' to each side of the equation.
0.5 + 4.5x + -0.5 + x2 = 0 + -0.5

Reorder the terms:
0.5 + -0.5 + 4.5x + x2 = 0 + -0.5

Combine like terms: 0.5 + -0.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 4.5x + x2 = 0 + -0.5
4.5x + x2 = 0 + -0.5

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.5 = -0.5
4.5x + x2 = -0.5

The x term is 4.5x.  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.
4.5x + 5.0625 + x2 = -0.5 + 5.0625

Reorder the terms:
5.0625 + 4.5x + x2 = -0.5 + 5.0625

Combine like terms: -0.5 + 5.0625 = 4.5625
5.0625 + 4.5x + x2 = 4.5625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 2.25)(x + 2.25) = 4.5625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 2.136000936
