Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
-14 + -1.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '14' to each side of the equation.
-14 + -1.5x + 14 + x2 = 0 + 14

Reorder the terms:
-14 + 14 + -1.5x + x2 = 0 + 14

Combine like terms: -14 + 14 = 0
0 + -1.5x + x2 = 0 + 14
-1.5x + x2 = 0 + 14

Combine like terms: 0 + 14 = 14
-1.5x + x2 = 14

The x term is -1.5x.  Take half its coefficient (-0.75).
Square it (0.5625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.5625' to each side of the equation.
-1.5x + 0.5625 + x2 = 14 + 0.5625

Reorder the terms:
0.5625 + -1.5x + x2 = 14 + 0.5625

Combine like terms: 14 + 0.5625 = 14.5625
0.5625 + -1.5x + x2 = 14.5625
