Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
-3.5 + 0.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '3.5' to each side of the equation.
-3.5 + 0.5x + 3.5 + x2 = 0 + 3.5

Reorder the terms:
-3.5 + 3.5 + 0.5x + x2 = 0 + 3.5

Combine like terms: -3.5 + 3.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 0.5x + x2 = 0 + 3.5
0.5x + x2 = 0 + 3.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 3.5 = 3.5
0.5x + x2 = 3.5

The x term is x.  Take half its coefficient (0.5).
Square it (0.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.25' to each side of the equation.
0.5x + 0.25 + x2 = 3.5 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + 0.5x + x2 = 3.5 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 3.5 + 0.25 = 3.75
0.25 + 0.5x + x2 = 3.75
