Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
11.5 + -7x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-11.5' to each side of the equation.
11.5 + -7x + -11.5 + x2 = 0 + -11.5

Reorder the terms:
11.5 + -11.5 + -7x + x2 = 0 + -11.5

Combine like terms: 11.5 + -11.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -7x + x2 = 0 + -11.5
-7x + x2 = 0 + -11.5

Combine like terms: 0 + -11.5 = -11.5
-7x + x2 = -11.5

The x term is -7x.  Take half its coefficient (-3.5).
Square it (12.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '12.25' to each side of the equation.
-7x + 12.25 + x2 = -11.5 + 12.25
