Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
-19.5 + -1x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '19.5' to each side of the equation.
-19.5 + -1x + 19.5 + x2 = 0 + 19.5

Reorder the terms:
-19.5 + 19.5 + -1x + x2 = 0 + 19.5

Combine like terms: -19.5 + 19.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -1x + x2 = 0 + 19.5
-1x + x2 = 0 + 19.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 19.5 = 19.5
-1x + x2 = 19.5

The x term is -1x.  Take half its coefficient (-0.5).
