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 = 1 + 12.25

Reorder the terms:
12.25 + -7x + x2 = 1 + 12.25

Combine like terms: 1 + 12.25 = 13.25
12.25 + -7x + x2 = 13.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + -3.5)(x + -3.5) = 13.25

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

Add '3.5' to each side of the equation.
-3.5 + 3.5 + x = 3.640054945 + 3.5

Combine like terms: -3.5 + 3.5 = 0.0
0.0 + x = 3.640054945 + 3.5
x = 3.640054945 + 3.5

Combine like terms: 3.640054945 + 3.5 = 7.140054945
x = 7.140054945

Simplifying
x = 7.140054945

Subproblem 2
x + -3.5 = -3.640054945

Simplifying
x + -3.5 = -3.640054945

Reorder the terms:
-3.5 + x = -3.640054945

Solving
-3.5 + x = -3.640054945

Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Add '3.5' to each side of the equation.
-3.5 + 3.5 + x = -3.640054945 + 3.5

Combine like terms: -3.5 + 3.5 = 0.0
0.0 + x = -3.640054945 + 3.5
x = -3.640054945 + 3.5
